The Effect of Technological Structure Change on Total Output:An Input-Output Analysis

In this study, the Input- Output Structural Decomposition Analysis (I-O SDA) is used to investigate the effects of technological structure changes on changes of total output in Sistan and Baluchestan Province during 2006-2011. The technological structure change is decomposed into two factors: intermediate input structure changes (input substitution) and change in direct backward linkage. The re...

Analysis of the Technological Transition Strategy of Combined Heat and Power (CHP) in Iran

This article identifies the most important barriers that have led to the lack of Combined heat and power (CHP) in Iran in comparison with the national plans. In present study, a model for policy analyzing of combined heat and power technologies on the basis of integrating the two approaches of technological innovation system and multi-level perspective which has been provided. The barriers of C...

The Effect of Technological Changes on Employment: Regional I-O SDA Approach

I n this study, the Regional Input- Output Structural Decomposition Analysis (I-O SDA) is used to investigate the effects of technological changes on employment in Sistan and Baluchestan Province of Iran during 2006-2011. This paper develops the SDA method to decompose the technological change from two viewpoints of supply and demand for intermediate inputs in each sector. These chan...

A Technological Learning Model for Iran's Buy-back Contracts: Case of North Azadegan Field Development

Buy back contracts have been one of the most common upstream contracts in the oil industry. This investment method allows the government to attract foreign capital and technical services and knowledge, while at the same time reducing the cost of foreign trade and increasing export capacity. On the other hand, Learning is one of the most important functions of technological collaboration, to whi...
