AIMS
Much
of the work involved in creating a microsimulation model is of
a highly technical nature that has limited interest to those outside
of the microsimulation community. In consequence this work tends
to remain buried in internal documentation and working papers,
representing a loss to the wider microsimulation community and
depriving those concerned of the academic recognition deserved.
In response the IMA has founded this peer-reviewed online journal,
the aim of which is to foster the dissemination of these specialist
technical developments, including examples of their validation
or benchmarking, and examples of good practice underpinning many
microsimulation models.
