This paper develops a piecewise linear toolkit for optimal policy analysis of rational expectations models, subject to occasionally binding constraints on (multiple) instruments and other variables. Optimal minimises quadratic loss function under either commitment or discretion. The accounts the presence ‘anticipated disturbances’ model equations, allowing around scenarios forecasts that are no...

In this paper, we obtain some fixed point theorems for occasionally weakly compatible mappings in cone metric space. Our results extends the result of A.Bhatt, et al.[A. Bhatt, et al., Common fixed point theorems for occasionally weakly compatible mappings under relaxed conditions, Nonlinear Anal., 73(2010) 176-182].

Future large distributed systems will be made by interconnecting highly autonomous subsystems, rather than by building ever more elaborate complexes which attempt to provide a single system image transparent to the user. The work described here explores the implications of this in the context of file sharing using occasional reconciliation. To be published in Fourth Workshop on Workstation Oper...

the busy market place, a bull fight ring, and the absence of women in public places. Then on to Chagres, where in the midst of many men waiting in rooms or in tents outside the city for the next steamer, he encountered five American ladies, Mrs. Fremont thin as a ghost among them." He described the local food, in particular a Spanish dish of "flour, onions, tomatoes and molasses well blended. I...

We describe and compare several algorithms for approximating the solution to a model in which inequality constraints occasionally bind. Their performance is evaluated and compared using various parameterizations of the one sector growth model with irreversible investment. We develop parameterized expectation algorithms which, on the basis of speed, accuracy and convenience of implementation, ap...
