Systemic models as optimization tool for territory design: Case study

Abstract

[EN] The objective of this research is the optimized design of the territory with respect to the sustainability of systems belonging to the "new rurality", based on action research, through the use of systemic models, which intend to carry out a design of the territory, according to the use of the new technologies and with the consideration of the socioeconomic and technical aspects of local development. For this, two cases belonging to the Colombian territory have been studied, in matters related to emerging systems of the territory. The use of systemic models has enabled the approach and simulation of the models, which represent the territory and therefore of decision-making, which allow the optimization of available resources in units considered as sustainability modules. The initial results suggest the extraction of knowledge necessary for systemic implementation. The results obtained allow the achievement of objectives and their final representation.
