4. Appear at rate which is constant through space Decides to burgle site with probability: If the criminal agent chooses not to burgle the current location, it moves to a neighbouring house with probability: Otherwise – if the criminal agent decides to burgle, it will then leave the system, and affect the attractiveness of the victimised site The Discrete Model Two dimensional lattice, grid spacing l Attractiveness: If a site is burgled, the dynamic component of attractiveness is adjusted as follows: Homes, s = (i,j) Burglars Static component Dynamic component

6. New burglar generated A = 1 A = 3 q = 1/6 q = 3/6 Assesses attractiveness of neighbouring sites Moves probabilistically Burglar removed from the system Dynamic attractiveness of local sites increase B(t)
