This paper describes the design of a dynamic microsimulation model being built as part of the DYNOPTA (Dynamic Analyses to Optimize Ageing) Project. The model aims to establish a demographic modelling infrastructure to simulate the health outcomes of Australia's baby boomer and aged cohorts and...

[eng] The paper describes the CNAV microsimulation model. Currently under construction, it has two aims : to evaluate the future pension rights of private sector employees to 2030, in terms of both mass and scatter, and to measure the savings or costs generated by new measures. Particular...

With the increasing diversity of family situations, growing numbers of people, including children, have more than one home. In France, nearly 4% of inhabitants are likely to be counted twice in surveys; while in Australia, the proportion is less than 2%. Taking into account the possibility that...
