Abstract

Incorporating knowledge-based urban development (KBUD) strategies in the urban planning and development process is a complex task due to the fragmented and incoherent existing KBUD models. This paper scrutinises and compares these KBUD models with an aim of identifying key and common features that help in developing a new comprehensive and integrated KBUD model. A thorough literature review reveals that while these models are invaluable and useful in some cases, the lack of a comprehensive perspective and absence of full integration of all necessary development domains render them incomplete as a generic model. The proposed KBUD model considers all central elements of urban development and sets an effective platform for planners and developers to achieve more holistic development outcomes. The proposed model, when developed further, has a high potential to support researchers, practitioners and particularly city administrators that are aiming for a knowledge-based development.
