Recent years have seen an increasing use in economics and finance of models employing large datasets, involving the estimation of large number of parameters. The severe computational problems that these models involve have partly motivated the huge body of contributions on stationary and non...

Contributions are welcomed on the following themes: • Health and welfare at the local and regional scale • Happiness and wellbeing: definitions and indicators • Poverty, exclusion and wellbeing • Social impacts of housing • The personal, social and financial costs of housing •...

This is an intensive week-long event, which comprises of lectures and practical sessions. The lectures will cover: • the dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) paradigm; • calibration to determine model parameters; • solution and control methods for linear rational expectations...

This three-day intensive course presents methods for performance measurement for multi-input multioutput firms. Among other things, participants will learn how Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) can be used to decompose indexes of profitability and...

This stream covers papers on the theme of efficiency and productivity analysis and performance management. Both parametric and non-parametric papers will be considered. We especially welcome papers on the theory, methodology and application of data envelopment analysis and econometric methods in...

Abstracts are welcome on theoretical, empirical and applied housing research but are particularly welcomed from a sociological or social sciences perspective (broadly and not in any way exhaustive: geography, political science, public policy, social policy, economics, finance, management &...

The Society brings together researchers working in Economics, Finance and Decision Sciences whose work has a strong computational component and the annual meeting usually attracts participants from over 20 countries. Topics: DSGE Modelling, Computational Macro Modelling, Agent-Based...

This conference provides an international forum for the exchange of research based on longitudinal data. While priority will be given to papers based on research using the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS), the European Household Panel (ECHP), or the European Union Statistics of Income and...

The course will describe techniques for analysing and modelling time series in Finance and Economics. It is suitable for economists and statisticians with a basic background in time series or econometrics and it will also be useful for people working in other fields such as Geography,...
