Anmerkungen zur Schuldenbremse
(2003)KOF Working PapersVolk und Stände der Schweiz beschlossen 2001, den absoluten Schuldenstand des Staates im Konjunkturverlauf zu begrenzen. Damit hat die Eidgenossenschaft einen Weg eingeschlagen, der sich von dem der Mitglieder des europäischen Stabilitätspaktes unterscheidet. Diese halten eine positive Obergrenze der Verschuldung relativ zur Wirtschaftsleistung für optimal. Dieser Artikel soll zeigen, dass die Umsetzung des Verfassungsartikels einerseits ...Working Paper -

Interpretation of Cointegration Coefficients: A Paradox, a Solution and Empirical Evidence
(2003)KOF Working PapersThe concept of cointegration (see e.g., Engle and Granger, 1987; Johansen, 1988) has extensively been used to model equilibrium relationships (see e.g., Johansen and Juselius, 1990; Ericsson, 1998). The links between economic and econometric concepts are now well understood and they have become part of the standard tools of empirical analysis. At the same time, however, the dynamics of the off-equilibrium situation have been met with ...Working Paper -

Join and leave in peer-to-peer systems
(2003)Technical reportIn this paper we introduce the distributed approximative system information service (DASIS) as a useful means to collect approximate information about a peer-to-peer system. As an example application we show how this service can be employed for establishing an eective determinis- tic join algorithm. Through simulation we demonstrate that insertion of peers using the service results in a well- balanced system. Moreover, our join algorithm ...Report
