Technological progress in energy efficiency is generally considered as an effective measure to address climate change issues. However, the expected results of such might be impacted by rebound effect. Employing linear approximation Almost Ideal Demand System (LA-AIDS) model, this paper aims direct effect residential buildings, considering differences for buildings between urban and rural China ...

FOREWORD This study analyzes U.S. consumer budget allocations among 11 agg1 egate commodity groups for the period 1948-78. Also budget allocations among four food groups are analyzed for this same period. Several alternative model specifications are analyzed. Emphasis is given to the Deaton-Muellbauer (1980a) "almost ideal demand system." A dynamic version of their model is developed and quanti...

This paper represents a dynamic specification of the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) based on recent developments on cointegration techniques and error correction models. Based on Greek meat consumption data over the period 1958–1993, it was found that the proposed formulation performs well on both theoretical and statistical grounds, as the theoretical properties of homogeneity and symmetry ...
