The DUALI/DUALPC Software for Optimal Control Models

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Computational Economics ((AICE,volume 6))

Abstract

The DUALI/DUALPC software is a system for solving quadratic-linear optimal control models. DUALI (which is pronounced “dual I”) provides a graphical interface for both deterministic and stochastic models as well as solvers for deterministic models and for passive learning stochastic models. DUALPC provides a personal computer version of the DUAL software, which solves both deterministic and stochastic control models including adaptive (dual) stochastic control models. DUALI/DUALPC runs under Windows 95 and Windows NT.
