There has been considerable interest in recent decades in the identification of the physical correlates of crime in different urban settings. In this study we focus on bus stop crime and seek to understand how different environmental attributes in the vicinity of a bus stop can affect the...

This paper describes a set of algorithms for the production of a certain class of architectural plans. Each plan is made up from rectangular rooms arranged within a simple rectangular overall plan shape. The effective upper limit on the number of component rectangles which may presently be...

A wide variety of practical problems in design, planning, and management can be formulated as quadratic assignment problems, and this paper discusses this class of problem. Since algorithms for producing optimal solutions to such problems are computationally infeasible for all but small problems...
