Metamodeling: The Contribution of Large Scale Optimization to Environmental Integrated Assessment
  Alain B. Haurie, GERAD et Ordecsys, Genève, Suisse

This presentation deals with the design of integrated assessment models for the analysis of air quality or climate change policies. One proposes to use oracle based optimization techniques (OBOT) to realize different sorts of coupling between economic and environment sub-models. One will present three recent developments: (i) the integration of a local pollution (ozone) model with a regional energy/technology model; (ii) the integration of an economic growth model with a global circulation model of climate change and; (iii) the design of a burden sharing game between different economic regions of the world in a post-Kyoto perspective.
