Abstract

With the newly available R packages tabloToR and HARr, it is now possible to run GEMPACK models expressed in the TABLO language entirely in R without the need for a Fortran compiler, the GEMPACK software or any licenses. Working through a simple GTAP simulation, we demonstrate how the simulation may be done in R and show that its results are virtually identical to those obtained in GEMPACK. With tabloToR and HARr offering a working replacement for GEMPACK, the packages could benefit those CGE modelers who are more comfortable working in R than in GEMPACK, and bring about benefits to the CGE modeling community through additional efficiency, easier integration and new features.
