Abstract
This paper intends to reveal new implications of a simple traditional model. The Huff's model is interpreted into the determinate style and used to fix the territory of two facilities with the assumption of linear city. The recurrent process is installed to the model in the way that the future scale of facility reflects the present amount of territory. And the facilities can be located in some distance from the end of the city so that the hinterland effect is embedded. In result, while the ordinary phenomenon -the smaller the distance-resistance parameter is, the more frequent the monopolization occurs- is observed, the model's peculiar behaviors -reversal change of the facility scale, coexistence of the facilities even in small distance-resistance parameter's case, and so on- also happen with some cases of facility locations and initial scale conditions.
