Abstract

Work on diffusion models started at IIASA in 1974 when we were searching for a solution to the problem of putting some internal logic into the dynamics of energy markets (Marchetti, 1975). The problem was formally solved by using multiple competition dressed in logistics which are the simplest coder for the simplest diffusion process, the epidemic one.
