Abstract

IIASA's Regional Development Group is engaged in a sequence of comparative studies in regional development modeling. The general purpose of this work is to promote an international exchange of the best experiences and most advanced knowledge in the field.

This paper was prepared as a contribution to a comparative study of multiregional modeling. It gives a general overview of approaches to regional and multiregional modeling in Australia, describes the main models developed in that country, and gives their characteristics in terms of spatial focus, direction of causal links, and formal types of solution techniques.
