An urban economic model over a continuous plane with spatial characteristic vector field : consideration of heterogeneous geographical conditions

Miyata, Yuzuru - 2011

gradient law has still been inherited. Following their achievement, Puu (2003) alone developed their theory by using many … computer simulations to visually show the significance of their theory. Beckmann and Puu's book (1985) aims to study formation … Beckmann and Puu are rigorously modified by using the theory of partial differential equations (Courant and Hilbert (1953, 1962 …

An application of the disequilibrium adjustment framework to small area forecasting and impact analysis

Hewings, Geoffrey; Jae Hong Kim - 2011

The disequilibrium adjustment frameworks, pioneered by Carlino & Mills (1987) and further extended by Boarnet (1994a), have been widely adopted by various regional and intra-regional studies, 1) determining whether jobs follow people or people follow jobs or the both; 2) examining the...

Distortions of sanctions on Myanmar's trade : evidences and predictions from the gravity model

Oh, Jinhwan - 2011

Using a gravity model, this study examines trade patterns of two isolated economies - Myanmar and North Korea. This study finds that two countries' trade is basically consistent with the prediction of the gravity model. However, economic sanctions toward these countries imposed by the U.S. and...

Next generation of radio spectrum management licensed shared access and the trade-off between static and dynamic efficiency

Massaro, Maria; Pogorel, Gérard - 2015 - Draft Paper

Increasing demand for access to the radio spectrum is setting the stage for a revision of existing radio spectrum management practices. A new wave of spectrum policy reforms can be envisaged, with a potential shift of policy focus from static to dynamic efficiency. This might translate into a...

Investigating the role of mobile network operators as platform providers in the internet of things

Karapantelakis, Athanasios; Markendahl, Jan - 2015

Internet of Things (IoT) is generally understood to be a realisation of the vision of ubiquitous computing, wherein any type of device will be connected to the Internet and will be controlled by remote software. The transition of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) ecosystem towards...

Urban spatial structure and economic growth in Spanish metropolitan areas : 1992-2008

Alamá, Luisa; Roig-Casanova, Marta; Forte, Anabel; … - 2011

There is a large literature on the existence of agglomeration economies, as shown in the surveys by Moomaw (1983) or Gerking (1993). The benefits of these economies arise from multiple sources, but some negative externalities might also emerge. Within the hierarchical urban system, cities at...

A spatial nonparametric analysis of local multipliers

Gerolimetto, Margherita; Magrini, Stefano - 2011

In this paper we present a spatial nonparametric analysis of local multipliers. Following Moretti (2010), we estimate the effect of an exogenous shock in the employment of the tradable sector on the employment in either the nontradable sector or the rest of the tradable sector using a...

Agent teams and evolutionary computation : optimizing semi-parametric spatial autoregressive models

Krisztin, Tamás; Koch, Matthias - 2011 - Manuscript received January 26, 2011

Classical spatial autoregressive models share the same weakness as the classical linear regression models, namely it is not possible to estimate non-linear relationships between the dependent and independent variables. In the case of classical linear regression a semi-parametric approach can be...

Of cells and cities : a comparative econometric and cellular automata approach to urban growth modeling

Krisztin, Tamás; Vaz, Eric de Noronha; Koch, Matthias - 2011

This paper presents a comparative assessment of two distinct urban growth modeling approaches. The first urban model uses a traditional Cellular Automata methodology, based on Markov transition chains to prospect probabilities of future urban change. Drawing forth from non-linear cell dynamics,...
