*represents 22 age-sex cohorts to age 100+

*calculates change in fertility and mortality rates in response to income, income distribution, and analysis multipliers
*computes average life expectancy at birth, literacy rate, and overall measures of human development (HDI) and physical quality of life
*represents migration and HIV/AIDS
*includes a newly developing submodel of formal education across primary, secondary, and tertiary levels

The '''economic''' module:

*represents the economy in six sectors: agriculture, materials, energy, industry, services, and ICT (other sectors could be configured, using raw data from the GTAP project)
[[Labor|Labor]]&nbsp;<ref>kdjfalksdjfasd</ref>
*computes and uses input-output matrices that change dynamically with development level
*is a general equilibrium-seeking model that does not assume exact equilibrium will exist in any given year; rather it uses inventories as buffer stocks and to provide price signals so that the model chases equilibrium over time
*contains an endogenous production function that represents contributions to growth in multifactor productivity from R&D, education, worker health, economic policies ("freedom"), and energy prices (the "quality" of capital)
*uses a Linear Expenditure System to represent changing consumption patterns
*utilizes a "pooled" rather than the bilateral trade approach for international trade
*is being imbedded during 2002 in a social accounting matrix (SAM) envelope that will tie economic production and consumption to intra-actor financial flows

The '''agricultural''' module:
= references =


 
<references />
 
*represents production, consumption and trade of crops and meat; it also carries ocean fish catch and aquaculture in less detail
*maintains land use in crop, grazing, forest, urban, and "other" categories
*represents demand for food, for livestock feed, and for industrial use of agricultural products
*is a partial equilibrium model in which food stocks buffer imbalances between production and consumption and determine price changes
*overrides the agricultural sector in the economic module unless the user chooses otherwise
 
 
 
The '''energy''' module:
 
 
 
*portrays production of six energy types: oil, gas, coal, nuclear, hydroelectric, and other renewable
*represents consumption and trade of energy in the aggregate
*represents known reserves and ultimate resources of the fossil fuels
*portrays changing capital costs of each energy type with technological change as well as with draw-downs of resources
*is a partial equilibrium model in which energy stocks buffer imbalances between production and consumption and determine price changes
*overrides the energy sector in the economic module unless the user chooses otherwise
 
 
 
The two '''socio-political''' sub-modules:
 
 
 
Within countries or geographic groupings
 
*represents fiscal policy through taxing and spending decisions
*shows six categories of government spending: military, health, education, R&D, foreign aid, and a residual category
*represents changes in social conditions of individuals (like fertility rates or literacy levels), attitudes of individuals (such as the level of materialism/postmaterialism of a society from the World Value Survey), and the social organization of people (such as the status of women)
*represents the evolution of democracy
*represents the prospects for state instability or failure
 
 
 
Between countries or groupings of countries
 
 
 
*traces changes in power balances across states and regions
*allows exploration of changes in the level of interstate threat
*represents possible action-reaction processes and arms races with associated potential for conflict among countries
 
 
 
The implicit '''environmental''' module:
 
 
 
*is distributed throughout the overall model
*allows tracking of remaining resources of fossil fuels, of the area of forested land, of water usage, and of atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions
 
 
 
The implicit '''technology''' module:
 
 
 
*is distributed throughout the overall model
*allows changes in assumptions about rates of technological advance in agriculture, energy, and the broader economy
*explicitly represents the extent of electronic networking of individuals in societies
*is tied to the governmental spending model with respect to R&D spending =
