Lozano E. E., Sena M., Heitzmann D. and Cheng Chih-H. (1974) Level of services and degree of accessibility: Spatial urban simulation model, Reg. Studies 8, 21–45. The main intention of this research is to study the effects of different design variables in respect to a set of selected urban performance measures. Hypothetical plans are generated by combining different levels of design variables—residential density, residential/open space distribution, number of commercial centres, distribution of commercial centres, and network structure. Measures of urban performance are specified, based on the thesis that a desirable spatial location of any urban component is defined as resulting in a higher level of services and/or higher degree of accessibility. A set of mathematical models is derived from the notion of potential and is used to evaluate the performance measures for each plan. The output of the evaluative mathematical models is related to the design variables in a regression analysis, which determines the effects of these variables on the performance measures
