This paper presents a methodology which allows demographic and economic forecasting models to be integrated in a consistent manner. By embedding a conventional static Leontief input-output model within an activity analysis framework, a number of interesting results are obtained. First, a new series of production, income, and employment multipliers is derived which offers considerable advantages over those currently in use. Second, partitioning the framework provides fresh insights into the complex relationships between demographic and economic variables. These developments in methodology are tested in a case study of Mersey side where an operational version of the framework is applied in a forecasting context.

This paper presents an approach to the planning of urban development using an activity analysis framework in contrast with the more prevalent simulation models. Using input-output relations for production of commodities and labor, and a specific geometry for the transportation network, the model determines an ‘efficient’ land-use pattern and transportation system by solving a linear programming problem. The model incorporates the ‘sunk’ nature of urban capital and shows how this affects the pattern of development in a growing city. From the viewpoint of data requirements and computational complexity it appears that this approach is worth pursuing in conjunction with, or as an alternative to, the efforts devoted to Lowry-type simulation models of land use.
