SIMBIOSES: Modelling Industrial Metabolism in a Multi-Regional Economic System

Janssen, Marco A.; Bergh, Jeroen C.J.M. van den - Tinbergen Instituut - 1999

A model framework, SIMBIOSES, is presented which describes economic activities and relatedmaterial, substance and energy flows in a multi-region and multi-sector economic system. Theconceptual design of the framework is discussed in relation to current issues on "dematerialization"and...

A Multi-Actor Multi-Criteria Analysis of the Performance of Global Cities

Kourtit, Karima; Macharis, Cathy; Nijkamp, Peter - Tinbergen Instituut - 2013

This discussion paper led to an article in Applied Geography (2014). Volume 49(SI), pages 24-36. The strong world-wide urbanisation trend calls for a repositioning of cities, especially the large cities with a global impact. These cities tend to become economic, logistic and political...

Adaptive Polar Sampling with an Application to a Bayes Measure of Value-at-Risk

Bauwens, Luc; Bos, Charles S.; Dijk, Herman K. van - Tinbergen Instituut - 1999

Adaptive Polar Sampling (APS) is proposed as a Markov chain Monte Carlomethod for Bayesian analysis of models with ill-behaved posteriordistributions. In order to sample efficiently from such a distribution,a location-scale transformation and a transformation to polarcoordinates are used. After...

Total Factor Productivity and the Mongolian Transition

Chessa, Antonio G.; Schouwstra, Marije C. - Tinbergen Instituut - 2005

Total Factor Productivity (TFP)is often used on the macro-economic level as an indicator of changes in efficiency of a country. In many transition economies TFP is seen to have been negative the last decade of the plan economy and starts increasing and become positive after a (quite a) few years...
