Abstract

The readings in this chapter all, with one exception, focus on Lowry or Lowry derivative models. The number of applications of these models is rivalled only by those of EMPIRIC. Considered in terms of potential for continued planning application, models of this type, especially when considered in terms of Wilson’s entropy maximizing approach, have no serious rivals.
