Symposium on Model Analysis of Sustainable Urban Development

I am very pleasure to invite you the international symposium on Model Analysis of Sustainable Urban Development, which will be held by inviting Professor Günter Emberger of Forschungsbereich für Verkehrsplanung und Verkehrstechnik, Institut für Verkehrswissenschaften, Technische Universität Wien.  The MARS or Metropolitan Activity Relocation Simulator developed by Prof. Günter Emberger is introduced on the symposium. The related research regarding accessibility on Sustainable urban development and low carbon society and research trend on system dynamics are introduced by Thai and Japanese researchers. And then we would like to discuss for further studies on sustainable urban development.
