A general model of technical change with an application to the OECD countries

Heshmati, Almas; Kumbhakar, Subal C. - 2011

In the neoclassical production functions model technical change (TC) is assumed to be exogenous and it is specified as a function of time. However, some exogenous external factors other than time can also affect the rate of TC. In this paper we model TC via a combination of time trend (purely...

Productivity with General Indices ofManagement and Technical Change

Triebs, Thomas; Kumbhakar, Subal C. - 2012

We propose a model of production where technical change is both time and management induced. We define a general management index in addition to the general time index of Baltagi and Griffin (1988) and use them as arguments in the translog productionfunction. Time and management induced...

Organisational change and the productivity effects of green technology adoption

Hottenrott, Hanna; Rexhäuser, Sascha; Veugelers, Reinhilde - 2016 - This version January 2016

This study investigates induced productivity effects of firms introducing new environmental technologies. The literature on within-firm organisational change and productivity suggests that firms can achieve higher productivity gains from adopting new technologies if they adapt their...

Estimation of technical change and TFP growth based on observable technology shifters

Heshmati, Almas; Rashidghalam, Masoomeh - 2017

This paper models and estimates total factor productivity (TFP) growth parametrically. The model is a generalization of … the traditional production model where technology is represented by a time trend. TFP growth is decomposed into … exogenous growth factors are used in modeling four technology shifter indices to explore development infrastructure, finances …

Production risk, energy use efficiency and productivity of Korean industries

Khayyat, Nabaz T.; Heshmati, Almas - 2014

Korea imports all of its primary energy, which leads to high dependency and vulnerability related to its energy supply. Efficiency in the use of energy is a way to reduce dependency and emissions. This study provides empirical results of the stochastic production process in energy use. Special...

The diffusion of technological progress in ICT

Elstner, Steffen; Grimme, Christian; Kecht, Valentin; … - 2020

We study whether technology gains in sectors related to Information and Communications Technology (ICT) increase productivity in the rest of the economy. To separate exogenous gains in ICT from other technological progress, we use the relative price of ICT goods and services in a structural VAR...
