City Interlock Connectivity in World City Network and Their Dynamic Factors——Case Study of Beijing and Seoul
研究了世界城市网络中城市互锁连通性的差异,发现国家层面的因素显著影响连通性,而城市和行业因素影响不显著,为理解城市网络动态提供了实证分析。
Within the network,the interlock connectivity of each city is different.The previous studies mainly described the network features and ways of connection,as well as provided calculation methods and failed to find more contents about the network.The authors of this paper adopted the calculation method of Taylor's matrix values of cities-companies,and assigned the data of 61 companies and 49 cities all around the world and compared the gaps among them.Results that city and sector context factors did not impact city interlock connectivity significantly;however,national context factors have impacted cities interlock connectivity significantly.This result provides empirical analysis for Taylor's definition about cities interlock connective and conducts that the dynamic factors at different levels affect cities interlock connectivity differently.
