Apart from the computational time and expenses of the CGE model, the discussion of elasticity parameter estimation and various closure rules as well as the difficulty of combining the results with other analysis approaches always poses obstacles ahead of us, therefore we are motivated to apply...

We propose an agent-based computational model defining the following dimensions of structural change?organisation of production, technology of production, and product on the supply side, and income distribution and consumption patterns on the demand side?at the microeconomic level. We define ten...
