An agent-based computational approach to explaining persistent spatial unemployment disparities
McArthur, David Philip; Thorsen, Inge; Ubøe, Jan (Discussion paper, Working paper, 2008-09)This paper explores possible reasons for persistent spatial unemployment disparities using agent-based computational methods. The method relies on observing the actions of thousands of individuals within an artificial ... -
Congested interregional infrastructure, road pricing and regional labour markets
McArthur, David Philip; Thorsen, Inge; Ubøe, Jan (Discussion paper, Working paper, 2009-04) -
Employment, transport infrastructure and rural depopulation: a new spatial equilibrium model
McArthur, David Philip; Thorsen, Inge; Ubøe, Jan (Discussion paper;09/2013, Working paper, 2013-09)In this paper we propose a new spatial equilibrium model, and use it to discuss issues related to rural depopulation. The discussion focuses on how investments in transport infras- tructure and the spatial distribution ... -
The impact of pecuniary costs on commuting flows
McArthur, David Philip; Kleppe, Gisle; Thorsen, Inge; Ubøe, Jan (Discussion paper, Working paper, 2010-05) -
Modelling social welfare effects of relocation and road pricing
Babri, Sahar; McArthur, David Philip; Thorsen, Inge; Ubøe, Jan (Discussion paper;42/14, Working paper, 2014-12)Road pricing is a popular congestion reduction strategy. However, there may be wider impacts associated with a road toll. We consider a factor which is sometimes overlooked, namely that workers and rms may choose to ... -
Optimum congestion pricing in a complex network
Babri, Sahar; McArthur, David Philip; Thorsen, Inge; Ubøe, Jan (Doctoral dissertation;04/13, Working paper, 2013-05)Road tolls are a well established way of dealing with problems of con- gestion. Over recent years, the literature has expanded to take account of how congestion charges might interact with imperfections in other mar- kets. ... -
The spatial transferability of parameters in a gravity model of commuting flows
McArthur, David Philip; Kleppe, Gisle; Thorsen, Inge; Ubøe, Jan (Discussion paper, Working paper, 2010-05)
