Urban land use planning using answer set programming preliminary report
The urban planning is required to direct the cities development based on the sustainable use of its territory. On the other hand, Answer Set Programming (ASP) is a logic programming paradigm with the ability of non monotonic reasoning, which has contributed to solving complex problems in a short period of time, providing a considerable number of possible outcomes to the same problem. The treatment of sustainable urban planning by using a declarative approach like ASP has not been proposed so far. This article aims to demonstrate a modelling exercise using basic knowledge about a mix of urban land usage. Also, to show alternatives for a better functional integration of green and habitational areas, as well as a discussion of further research using this approach.
