It's a big problem; would require a big budget, as modeling projects go. There would be large data collection requirements, definition and representations of international boundary conditions/interfaces, stock markets, futures markets, commodities markets, currency markets, real estate markets, banks, government reserves, taxes, income, employment sectors, industry sectors, consumers.
Hmm. It might take 22 or 23 differential equations to capture it all, instead of just 20. Oh, and we might have to switch from MATLAB to Netlogo. </sarcasm> (The opening tag started several messages ago). ;-[ -- Doug Roberts, RTI International [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 505-455-7333 - Office 505-670-8195 - Cell On Fri, Oct 3, 2008 at 3:48 PM, Marcus G.
