- Title
Exploring the joint dynamics of intercity internet and corporate networks: a stochastic actor-based modelling approach.

- Abstract
In this article, I show one possible solution to synthesis dynamics in multiple intercity networks. I adopt a stochastic actor-based modelling approach to explore the co-evolution of an intercity corporate network of 57 globalized advanced producer service firms across 93 cities, and another intercity internet network between these 93 cities, for the period 2004-2010. Stochastic actor-based models (SABMs) help to connect interactions among cities and firms on the local scale with empirically observed networks on the global scale. My analysis accounts for the co-evolution/interdependence among multiple world city networks (WCNs) and associated network changes in individual WCNs with exogenous city-related covariates and endogenous local network structures.
