The Destinie model is a dynamic microsimulation model whose main purpose is the long run projection of pensions both at the macro and micro levels. This document presents how such simulations can be built with the new version of the model. They do not rely on a closed ready-made program where...

We ask whether young agents prefer to work in different-age or same-age production pairs in an overlapping-generations model where wages are reputation-based. We find that inter-generational teams (i) produce more heterogeneity in the old workers' reputations, (ii) generate a greater share of...

In this paper, we propose to solve the circular packing problem (CPP) whose objective is to pack n different circles C(i) of known radius r(i) , i = 1, …, n into the smallest containing circle C. The objective is to determine the radius r of C as well as the coordinates (x(i) , y(i)) of the...
