This study examines the long-run equilibrium relationship between regional economic variables and local employment growth using the panel data of 16 regions from 1995 to 2013 in Korea. This study uses the GRDP, wage, and public expenditure for the explanatory variables. This study estimates long-run equilibrium equation in terms of panel cointegration relationships between the variables which have the unit roots using the FMOLS(Fully Modified OLS) estimation. This study shows that GRDP and public expenditure have positive impacts on total industrial employment and service industrial employment. Moreover, if the variables deviate from equilibrium, then error correction term converges to the Long-Run equilibrium. This study also reveals that service industrial sector has higher impact than total industrial sector and that the wage variable has a negative effect on employment.

Since the pioneering work of Lowry in the 1960s, many urban models have developed to understand how urban systems work and change. Early urban models tend to focus on the relationship and interaction between land use and transportation, but recent urban models pay more attention to urban morphology with an interest on self-organising nature of urban systems. Agent based urban modelling approach is gaining popularity as a new means to study an urban systems in this context. This study aims to develop an agent based urban model as a new scientific tools to understand changes in urban systems and to support planning policy making. The study introduces urban economic theory and analysis into the angent based modelling framework. We then developed a model by using an open source programming platform, Repast Simphony. The model was applied to a case study area of Busan Metropolitan Area(Busan, Gimhae, Yangsan) to see if it properly works and generates valid simulation outcomes. We has confirmed that the model offers new and meaningful ways to understand urban future.

This study was conducted to define the concepts of artificial ground, superstructure of artificial ground, and amenities for residents, which constitute new facilities integrated in Haengbok [happiness] Pubic Rental Housing(HPRH) districts, as public facilities and to analyze their functions and roles on the basis of facility supply situations in the Gajwa-Oryoo pilot HPRH district. By so doing, it was intended to present a rationale for the stance that public entities, such as municipalities, have the right to and duty of operational management of these facilities. Taking into account facility types, such as artificial ground, superstructure of artificial ground, and amenities for residents, locations of facility installation (asset type), and ownership, the operational management system was classified into 8 types, and the anticipated problems, key issues, and pros and cons of each type were analyzed and presented as guidelines for persons in charge when the public facility operational management becomes an actual issue. By analyzing similar national and international cases and weighing up pros and cons of each of 8 types, system revision plan necessary for a stable and sustainable operational management of a Haengbok housing district is proposed. Also proposed are a system for setting up partitioned superficies in public land as a basis for artificial ground management and superstructure construction, applications of spatial decision and duplicated decision on urban planning facilities, a cost sharing plan for the budget by equity and operational management budget, operational management methods differentiated in accordance with the nature of amenities for residents and introduction methods, and finally an operational management methodology model for each facility type.
