Geographic Automata Systems : A New Paradigm for Integrating GIS and Geographic Simulation

Geographic simulation is concerned with automata-based methodologies for simulating discrete, dynamic, and action-oriented spatial systems, combining cellular automata and multi-agent systems in a spatial context. In this paper, we propose a paradigm for integrating GIS and geosimulation into what we term Geographic Automata Systems (GAS), the latter fusing the two into full-blown, symbiotic systems.
