Abstract

Extending our conventional notion of accessibility is a major topic of interest in the geographical and planning literature. This paper explores one of these possibilities. It describes individuals' action spaces and their associated accessibility by means of computer simulation. A multi-agent model is developed with the aim of providing a deeper understanding of daily life activities in a spatial setting. The SWARM software platform is used as a means to investigate the action spaces of individuals and their management strategies.
