Abstract
Our aim in this chapter is twofold: Firstly, to further develop our model City and transform it from an implicit to an explicit and genuine FACS model. As noted above, City was essentially a CA model where the free-agent properties of individuals appeared only implicitly. In City-1, the model we develop below, these properties form an explicit aspect of the model’s formalism. Secondly, we wish to study the relations between international migration and the internal structure of cities — a general urban phenomenon typical to cities in immigration absorbing countries. In this chapter we shall develop this issue with special reference to the recent migration waves to Israel from ex-USSR countries.
