Abstract :
Urban development involves numerous independent organizations, and effective coordination among them is crucial to the success of site selection for new development areas. This study aims to identify the interdependencies among these organizations and to propose a logical model for managing such relationships. Using a multiple embedded qualitative case study approach, the research first identifies the key interdependencies present in the urban development process. Given the complexity of these interactions, and the strengths of the agent-based modeling paradigm in addressing complex systems, an agent-based coordination model is developed. The proposed model, built on a set of simple "if-then" rules, provides urban development decision-makers with a logical and adaptable framework to manage coordination challenges effectively.
