Double Vagueness: Effect of Scale on the Modelling of Fuzzy Spatial Objects
In the identification of landscape features vagueness arises from the fact that the attributes and parameters that make up a landscape vary over space and scale. In most existing studies, these two kinds of va...

Landscape approaches to assess environmental security: summary, conclusions, and recommendations
Landscape sciences emphasize the importance of spatial pattern and scale in determining the relative degree of environmental security. The primary hypothesis of the landscape sciences is that spatial pattern a...

Allometric scaling as an indicator of ecosystem state: a new approach
It is argued that the problem of regional environmental security cannot in principle be solved without involving the regulatory environmental potential of the natural biota. Ecological allometry, i.e. the anal...

A Geographically Weighted Regression Method to Spatially Disaggregate Regional Employment Forecasts for South East Queensland
In this paper we present a new methodology by which regional employment forecasts can be spatially disaggregated to smaller administrative units. We develop a statistical model for disaggregating spatial data ...

A note on the theory of investment: Hotelling’s rule under process independence
This note shows that the well-known Hotelling rule holds for a wider class of capital investment projects satisfying the property of process independence. Optimality behavior is therefore not a necessary condi...

An empirical analysis of household choices on housing and travel mode in Boston
We study household choices on the housing type and travel mode in Boston in the year 1991. We first develop a theoretical model for an integrated analysis of housing and travel mode choices, which implies that...

An adaptive compromise programming method for multi-objective path optimization
Network routing problems generally involve multiple objectives which may conflict one another. An effective way to solve such problems is to generate a set of Pareto-optimal solutions that is small enough to b...

Endogenous R&D spillover and location choice in a mixed oligopoly
We consider a three-stage game where a public firm and a private firm choose R&D, location, and price, under the assumption that R&D spillovers rely on their locations. We show that, in equilibrium, whether th...
