Job Creation and Destruction
, 1996
"... With unemployment at historically high levels in many OECD countries, increased job creation has risen to the top of the policy agenda for many western governments-but how can this be achieved? The importance of job creation (and destruction) in an economy cannot be overstated. Labour is organized a ..."

in recent years. Fur-thermore, job destruction can lead to involuntary worker separations and possibly substantial adjustment costs for individuals. This well-written book assembles much of the empirical work written on job creation and destruction. It is well laid out and accessible to both specialists
Parallel discrete event simulation
, 1990
"... Parallel discrete event simulation (PDES), sometimes I called distributed simulation, refers to the execution of a single discrete event simulation program on a parallel computer. PDES has attracted a considerable amount of interest in recent years. From a pragmatic standpoint, this interest arises ..."

Monetary Policy Rules and Macroeconomic Stability: Evidence and Some Theory
- Journal of Economics
, 2000
"... We estimate a forward-looking monetary policy reaction function for the postwar United States economy, before and after Volcker’s appointment as Fed Chairman in 1979. Our results point to substantial differences in the estimated rule across periods. In particular, interest rate policy in the Volcker ..."

A Simple Estimator of Cointegrating Vectors in Higher Order Cointegrated Systems
- ECONOMETRICA
, 1993
"... Efficient estimators of cointegrating vectors are presented for systems involving deterministic components and variables of differing, higher orders of integration. The estimators are computed using GLS or OLS, and Wald Statistics constructed from these estimators have asymptotic x2 distributions. T ..."

. These and previously proposed estimators of cointegrating vectors are used to study long-run U.S. money (Ml) demand. Ml demand is found to be stable over 1900-1989; the 95 % confidence intervals for the income elasticity and interest rate semielasticity are (.88,1.06) and (-.13,-.08), respectively. Estimates based
Financial Intermediation, Loanable Funds, and the Real Sector
- Quarterly Journal of Economics
, 1997
"... We study an incentive model of ®nancial intermediation in which ®rms as well as intermediaries are capital constrained. We analyze how the distribution of wealth across ®rms, intermediaries, and uninformed investors affects investment, interest rates, and the intensity of monitoring. We show that al ..."

"... Abstract. This article presents some general remarks on rough sets and their place in general picture of research on vagueness and uncertainty -concepts of utmost interest, for many years, for philosophers, mathematicians, logicians and recently also for computer scientists and engineers particular ..."

Understanding Social Preferences with Simple Tests
, 2001
"... Departures from self-interest in economic experiments have recently inspired models of “social preferences”. We design a range of simple experimental games that test these theories more directly than existing experiments. Our experiments show that subjects are more concerned with increasing social w ..."

Decision-Theoretic Planning: Structural Assumptions and Computational Leverage
- JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH

Planning under uncertainty is a central problem in the study of automated sequential decision making, and has been addressed by researchers in many different fields, including AI planning, decision analysis, operations research, control theory and economics. While the assumptions and perspectives ..."

and perspectives adopted in these areas often differ in substantial ways, many planning problems of interest to researchers in these fields can be modeled as Markov decision processes (MDPs) and analyzed using the techniques of decision theory. This paper presents an overview and synthesis of MDP
