 The New Jersey (USA) Growth Allocation Model: Development, Evaluation and ExtensionJames Reilly
Chapter 20 in Planning Support Systems in Practice, 2003, pp 373-389 from Springer Abstract: Abstract A land use planning support system (PSS) developed by the New Jersey Office of State Planning is described along with on-going and proposed revisions to the application. Current uses of the PSS include both policy testing for state level capitalfacility and regulatory agencies and the development of regional (countywide) land use master plans. Acceptance of the model has been greatly facilitated by its independent verification and validation by the Rutgers University Center for Urban Policy Research. Knowledge-based and other complexity-related issues related to the model are discussed since these problems are likely to be common to all similar computer applications. To facilitate the use and political acceptance of decision support applications, the creation of an international organization is proposed and the roles such a group might provide are recommended.
