Book Description
This paper describes an economic model that is designed to simulate the impact of computer-based automation on future Canadian industry employment and occupational structure. The model combines the features of a Keynesian macroeconomic system with the detailed industrial structure of input-output analysis and census-based occupational distribution of employment. The mechanics of the model feature a number of innovative techniques that are of professional interest to economics.
