JOB MATCHING AND PROPAGATION Shigeru
نویسنده
چکیده
In the U.S. labor market, the vacancy-unemployment ratio and employment react sluggishly to productivity shocks. We show that the job matching model in its standard form cannot reproduce these patterns due to excessively rapid vacancy responses. Extending the model to incorporate sunk costs for vacancy creation yields highly realistic dynamics. Creation costs induce entrant firms to smooth the adjustment of new openings following a shock, leading the stock of vacancies to react sluggishly. JEL codes: E32, J63, J64

Job Matching and Propagation

متن کاملJob Competition between the Unemployed and Non-Participants
This paper considers labour supply and demand shocks in a simple flow model of the labour market. We consider the propagation of these shocks in a matching model with competition between various groups of job seekers. By way of simulations we explore the extent of labour market hysteresis arising from competition between unemployed job seekers and job seekers outside the labour force. The simul...
متن کاملWeak Stable Matchings with Tenants and Ties
The paper addresses a variant of the stable marriage problem that models a job recruitment problem in which applicants are strictly ordered by priority but their preference lists may have ties. Some applicants may hold a post initially. These posts may be assigned to other applicants if their holders get another post. By reducing the problem to a sequence of maximum cardinality bipartite matchi...
متن کاملA Broker and Job Advertisement Based Grid Scheduling Framework
A computational grid is a distributed collection of computer and storage resources created and maintained to serve the needs of virtual organizations where users seek to harness geographically distributed computational and storage resources for large scale intensive problem solving purposes. However, effective resource management and job scheduling poses a challenge when constraints such as res...
متن کاملPropagation strategies for stereo image matching based on the dynamic triangle constraint
For the purpose of reliable stereo image matching, this paper discusses a novel propagation strategy of image matching under the dynamic triangle constraint. Firstly, the construction and the dynamic updating method for the corresponding triangulations on the stereo pairs are introduced, which are used as both constraints and carriers during the matching propagation. Then, three propagation str...
