Book Input Output Analysis for Transportation Economy and Logistics

Download or read book Input Output Analysis for Transportation Economy and Logistics written by Hideo Fukuishi and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thailand is one of the important countries which belong to new trading and logistics pattern in East Asia. In this circumstance, it is quite significant to identify the relationship between economic characteristics and structures of transportation and logistics industries. This study has 3 objectives. First is to identify the economic characteristic and structure of whole transportation from 1975 to 2000 by input-output analysis. Second is to identify the economic characteristics and structure of each mode of transportation sector by input-output analysis. Third is to estimate 2005 Input-output tables and evaluate the effect of modal shift to reduce energy consumption to accomplish sustainable development. Results obtained that load freight transport is one of the most cost effective transportation modes and many industries prefer to use. However, this tendency will have critical environmental impact in the near future. To prevent this, modal shift from truck to railways and water transport is considered one of the reasonable ways. Therefore, it is important for railways and water transport industries to improve their economic condition and reduce their transportation costs.

Book Advances in Input Output Analysis

Download or read book Advances in Input Output Analysis written by William Peterson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1991-11-14 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Input-output analysis, developed by Nobel Prize winner Wassily Leontief, continues to be a vital area of research. Not only do academics find it a powerful tool in understanding how large scale economies--especially national economies--work, but many governments maintain computer input-output models to study their own economies. This important volume of work contains the latest research using the I-O model, focusing primarily on technology, planning, and development. The book derives from a conference held in Sapporo, Japan, in July, 1986.

Book The Economics of Industrial Location

Download or read book The Economics of Industrial Location written by Philip McCann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The motivation for this book comes from the apparent inability of existing orthodox location theory to throw light on a series of location-production problems which are typically faced by modem manufacturing and distribution ftrms. These problems are related to the treatment of time by ftrms, who normally view time costs in terms of inventory costs. From this perspective, traditional industrial location and linkage analysis can be re-cast in a form in which space time problems can be dealt with in a unifted manner. The role played by input factor prices and market prices in location behaviour becomes dependent on the relationship between the frequency of shipment and the distance of shipment. This approach provides new insights into the relationship between the optimal location of the ftrm and the value-added by the ftrm, under conditions of either ftxed or varying local factor prices. The approach can then also be extended to discuss the of the spatial changes involved in the new Just-In-Time (JIT) production question philosophy. I would like to acknowledge the many helpful discussions I have had with Bernard Fingleton, Masahisa Fujita, Geoff Hewings, John McCombie, Ron Miller, John Parr, Tony E. Smith, and my colleagues at the University of Reading.

Book Multiregional Input     Output Models in Long Run Simulation

Download or read book Multiregional Input Output Models in Long Run Simulation written by N. Toyomane and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is about the multi regional input-output model used in long-run simulation. The input-output technique was originally developed for spaceless, short-term analysis of a national economy. However, its high potential as an analytical tool has resulted in an expansion of its application in various directions. Thus, we now have the inter- and mul tiregional input-output model, in which a nation is broken down into a number of interacting regions, and some applications dealing with long-range projections of input-output systems. This study attempts to integrate those two directions within the framework of interregional simulation modeling. A major problem with the multiregional input-output model for long-run simulation is how to update the technical and trade coefficients in the model. This study focuses on the trade coefficient updating problem, and a solution is presented in which a trade coefficient model is coupled with the price model built into the input-output system. When I began this project, the main problem facing me was not purely theoretical but a very practical one: how to design an interregional model for Indonesia. Indonesia is a country characterized by its quite uneven population distribution over the archipelago. My interest was in the formation of its settlement policy, and the use of modeling to assist in this process. This original intention may be evident in various parts of the text.

Book Input Output Models for Sustainable Industrial Systems

Download or read book Input Output Models for Sustainable Industrial Systems written by Raymond R. Tan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-12 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the specialized topic of input–output models for sustainable industrial systems. While these models are well-established tools for economic analysis, their underlying mathematical structure is also applicable to the analysis and optimization of a wide range of systems that are characterized by linear interdependencies among their components. This means that input–output models can be used for diverse networks, such as processes within industrial plants, industrial plants in a supply chain, or departmental units within an organization. The models can also be readily extended to interactions between man-made systems and the environment, e.g. flows of natural resources and/or pollutants. Furthermore, model variants with excess degrees of freedom can be formulated to allow optimization and decision-making to be integrated within the framework. This book examines how input–output models can be applied to sustainable industrial systems. Each major variant is discussed separately in a dedicated chapter, and representative case studies and supporting LINGO code are also included.

Book The Economics of Input Output Analysis

Download or read book The Economics of Input Output Analysis written by Thijs ten Raa and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-19 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Input-output analysis is the main tool of applied equilibrium analysis. This textbook provides a systematic survey of the most recent developments in input-output analysis and their applications, helping us to examine questions such as: which industries are competitive? What are the multiplier effects of an investment program? How do environmental restrictions impact on prices? Linear programming and national accounting are introduced and used to resolve issues such as the choice of technique, the comparative advantage of a national economy, its efficiency and dynamic performance. Technological and environmental spillovers are analysed, both at the national level (between industries) and the international level (the measurement of globalisation effects). The book is self-contained, but assumes some familiarity with calculus, matrix algebra, and the microeconomic principle of optimizing behaviour. Exercises and review questions are included at the end of each chapter, and solutions at the end of the book.
