Under adaptive learning, recursive algorithms are proposed to represent how agents update their beliefs over time. For applied purposes these algorithms require initial estimates of agents perceived law of motion. Obtaining appropriate initial estimates can become prohibitive within the usual...

Problem definition: Intraproject learning in project scheduling is concerned with the use of learning among the similar tasks in the project to improve the overall performance of the project schedule. Under intraproject learning, knowledge gained from completing some tasks in a project is used...

In this paper we present a method for using rational expectations in a linear-quadratic optimizationframework. Following the approach put forward by Sims, we solve the model through a QZdecomposition, which is generally easier to implement than the more widely used method of Blanchardand Kahn.
