Material type: 
BookSeries: DAE Occasional Papers. Publisher: Cambridge et al., Cambridge University Press, 2000Description: 331 pages.ISBN: 0-521-79006-9.Subject(s): application | microsimulation | policy researchOnline resources: Publisher's website Summary: The editors bring together examples of microsimulation modeling that are at the frontiers of developments in the field, either because they extend the range of techniques available to modelers, or because they demonstrate new applications for established methods. This volume represents the state of the art with chapters on the use of microsimulation for comparative policy research and for challenging conventional assumptions, combining microsimulation with other types of economic models and the much-neglected subjects of model alignment and validation. Data and case studies are taken from regions including Asia-Pacific, Europe and North America.
