Because of heterogeneity across regions, economic policy measures are increasingly targeted at the regional level, and the need for forecasts at the regional level is rapidly increasing. The data available to compute regional forecasts is usually based on a pseudo-panel of a limited number of...

This paper investigates patterns of manufacturing location in the context of increased economie integration in Central and East European countries. Using regional data for the period 1990-1999, we identify and compare patterns and determinants of manufacturing location in five European Union...

Environmental issues have received a prominent place in transport policies of most European countries. The coordination of such policies however, is fraught with many difficulties. The increasing freight flows after the European integration are a source of concern, but have not yet led to...

The present paper aims to analyse interregional freight transport movements in Europe in order to forecast spatio-temporal patterns of new transport economic scenarios. In view of the high dimension of our data-base on transport flows, two different approaches are compared, viz. the logit model...

The present paper aims at developing a new research approach based on the synergy concept as a driving force in network analysis and modelling. Starting from some introductory reflections identifying the role of network synergy in regional development and transportation science, the paper aims...

The present paper aims to analyse interregional freight transport movements in Europe with a view on forecasting future patterns of transport flows using simple economic scenarios. In view of the high dimension of our data-base on transport flows, two different approaches are compared, viz. the...

This paper addresses the issue of innovative behaviour of firms in an urban European context. It aims to identify key factors for innovation at the local level, based on micro survey information from firms. In seeking for prominent explanatory variables for entrepreneurial innovation in various...
