Resumen:
It is evident in studies of processes taking place in urban spaces that the modeling of emergent phenomena has established itself as an acceptable methodology to address complex processes that characterize socio-spatial dynamics. Most of the background on this approach has successfully applied cellular automata to simulate processes such as automotive and pedestrian movements, land use changes, emergence of new urban centers, urban expansion and socio-spatial segregation. However, a relatively small progress has been made on this subject in the Latin American urban space as well as in the developed of computer applications that models emerging simulation. In this context, the main the objective of this work is to build a computer application that facilitates the study and understanding of urban growth and expansion phenomena in Argentinean cities of intermediate size by using cellular automata.
