  4. 2. Testing and estimation in labour supply and duration models

    Author : Niklas Karlsson; Umeå University; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; labour supply; quantity constraint; perceived tax scale; duration; specification test; distribution;

    Abstract : Estimation and testing in labour supply and unemployment duration models are studied. In the first two papers estimation techniques designed to account for quantity constraints and perceived tax scales are developed, while the remaining three papers focus on specification tests.

    Abstract : In recent years, there has been much advancement in the area of verification of infinite-state systems. A system can have an infinite state-space due to unbounded data structures such as counters, clocks, stacks, queues, etc. It may also be infinite-state due to parameterization, i.e. READ MORE

  7. 5. Heating and Cooling Requirements in Commercial Buildings. A duration curve model including building dynamics

    Author : Per-Erik Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HVAC system; cooling requirements; duration curve; heating requirements; commercial building; heat balance; balance curve; energy analysis;

    Abstract : In many European countries, especially, the heat loss due to transmission and air leakage, in many buildings today, is only a fraction of what it was in those built in the early 70's. At the same time there have been changes in the way the buildings are used which, among other things, has lead to an often considerable increase of the internal heat loads. READ MORE
