Numerical Analysis in Econom(etr)ic Softwares: the Data-Memory Shortage Management

Author

Listed:
  • Buda, Rodolphe

Abstract

The econometricians and the economic modelers have to know and use numerical analysis not only to have a good understanding of their results, but sometimes to built their own tools. The increasing tendency to the use of large-scale models leads the softwares to reach the limit of the saturation of the Data-Memory. In this paper, we present an intuitive procedure DMT - i.e. Disk-Matrix Technique - which could help econom(etr)ic software developers to correct the problem of the data-memory shortage during the building of their own software.
