Towards a multi-purpose framework for tax-benefit microsimulation

Immervoll, Herwig; O'Donoghue, Cathal - 2001

This paper introduces a generalised model building platform (MMEANS) for implementing and using tax-benefit microsimulation models. It is designed to aid in the construction of single- and multi-country tax-benefit models by providing all essential components and a system by which these can be...

Cross-National Microsimulation Modelling : Reforming Social Assistance in Three European Countries

O'Donoghue, Cathal; Evans, Martin - 2014

This paper examines the use of national microsimulation models in a cross-country context and highlights some of the difficulties associated with carrying out comparative research. Changes to the equivalence scales of social assistance systems in favour of children in Germany, Ireland and the UK...

A methodological survey of dynamic microsimulation models

Li, Jinjing; O'Donoghue, Cathal - United Nations University-Maastricht Economic Research … - 2012

More than 10 years ago O'Donoghue (2001) surveyed the dynamic microsimulation models that had been developed up to that point. However the 2000's have seen many of the barriers that existed for model development up until that point overcome. This paper surveys the development and practices in...

Evaluating binary alignment methods in microsimulation models

Li, Jinjing; O'Donoghue, Cathal - United Nations University-Maastricht Economic Research … - 2012

. However, limited research has been devoted to the understanding of their simulation properties. This paper discusses and … all simulation scenarios. Instead, the choice of alignment method might need to be adapted to the assumptions and …
