It is known through an earlier work (Grandmont and Laroque [2]), which analysed discontinuous least squares learning dynamics (around the steady state) in the case of linear temporary equilibrium maps, that there always exists an open cone of initial conditions for which the dynamics are locally...

Studies of the process of model formulation by experts have shown the process to be an iterative one, in which the model is continuously refined until a complete and consistent representation emerges. It is also a highly unstable activity as the problem specifications, including the goal, may...

Some very fast least-squares based calibration procedures for the gravity model have been presented in earlier papers. Since these procedures are inconvenient or impossible to use when diagonal elements of the base period origin - destination (O - D) matrix are unavailable, one of the procedures...

In this paper we discuss global climate change mitigation that builds on existing unilateral actions to deliver ever deepening emission cuts over time. A wide array of unilateral environmental measures have been documented. We discuss the rationale for suchmeasures and argue that unilateral...
