The science of networks can be considered a key instrument for complex systems analysis/analytics, design, and planning. Under its framework and through its main analytical methods and forms (network graphs and related operations), one of the urban subsystems—urban mobility and transportation system—has been represented and investigated. The Grand Paris rail network, including all its transportation categories (metro, tram, RER, TGV) with their existing lines and extensions currently either in construction and planned or under consideration in the long term, has been modelled as a background topological and simulation environment and geometry for various abstract and real-world research operations and generative design tasks with regards to urban computing (e.g., urban movement path generation, the network’s incremental growth and reconfiguration, spatial urban scenario constructions, etc.). The interactive representation of analytical data relevant for this type of urban systems, will be considered in the upcoming period, aiming to inspect all the possibilities of the targeted programmability of the urban mobility system.
