| There is demand for qualitative and quantitative economic analysis on the optimum degree of climate change mitigation and adaptation, the optimal timing of such actions, and their optimum distribution between countries and sectors. This paper discusses what is, as well as what is not, possible for economic modelling in this field. Specific reference is made to the paper by Bosello, Carraro and de Cian (2009), as well as Tol (2009). Integrated assessment modelling can provide powerful qualitative insights (for example, about the need for both mitigation and adaptation and the interactions between the two, or the need for both individual and policy-driven adaptation). However, the more detailed quantitative results from such studies are subject are... |

| In a large-scale agricultural model a sizeable amount of low level data undergoes several stages of processing. In designing a model, uncertainty and complexity will restrict the generality of computer-implemented stages and much of the processing will be manual. The resulting model is likely to be inflexible to changes or else require as long again to modify and rerun as to design another model in order to evaluate another policy. By recognizing the necessary constraints imposed by mass data handling, the proportion of time spent on data problems could be reduced. Emphasis should be placed on defining beforehand as explicity as possible an acceptable methodology and what the specific uses of the model will be. |

| Organizations no longer compete as independent entities, but as chains (Christopher 1998; Cox 1999; Lambert and Cooper 2000), and these organizations more and more realize the performance potential of chains (Pearson and Samali 2005; Gellynck, Vermeire and Viaene 2006). Being part of a well‐performing chain generates important performance benefits for the individual organization (Zhenxin, Hong and Edwin 2001). As a result, there is increasing interest in the performance of chains as a research subject (Beamon 1998). A vast group of authors (Neely, Mills, Platts, Gregory and Richards 1994; Neely, Gregory and Platts 1995; Beamon 1998; Christopher 1998; Beamon 1999; Li and O'Brien 1999; Van der Vorst 2000; Gunasekaran, Patel and Tirtiroglu 2001; Lambert and... |
