Abstract

Input-output modeling, has, through the years, provided a consistent and unifying focus for IIASA's economic research. Scientists working at the Institute have cooperated extensively with colleagues throughout the world in advancing and contributing to input-output work.

Perhaps the most notable aspect of these efforts has been the joint work with the INFORUM Project to develop linked systems of national models. Experience gained with the INFORUM-IIASA studies has been of great benefit to other members of the I/O community. Contributors not connected with INFORUM have also brought their own very valuable insights and knowledge to bear on the subject, and input-output modeling has moved progressively away from being a purely academic specialization. A number of the methods developed have direct application to economic analysis and policy formulation, and I/O techniques have achieved widespread use in both governmental and commercial environments.

This volume presents the results of the fifth of a series of meetings organized by IIASA to promote methodological advances in the subject and to draw on a pool of I/O expertise so as to further the aims of the Institute's in-house economic research.
