Abstract: |
German demographic or educational
projections are conventionally based on macrosimulations.
Macrosimulation models use average values of the
simulation parameters to compute the updating process. Additionally, the
proportions of educational graduate rates stay constant in these models. In
this paper I introduce a discrete event microsimulation
model which is designed to project the graduate
rates of the German population. With this simulation model it was
demonstrated that the development of the graduation rates can
become the subject of the simulation. |
