CollEc software. I like Collec http://collec.repec.org/nodes/v/a/109.htm.

The software is called icanis. CollEc is an instance of icanis. It lives at http://collec.repec.org/

In the documentation you indicate that it was difficult too find good algorithms and software. You do not refer to http://repub.eur.nl/res/pub/6696/2004-0011.pdf (or its JPE version) . or http://www.tinbergen.nl/discussionpapers/06008.pdf (or its RNE version) I suggest you contact (my former econometrics and operations research student) /Marco/. /van der Leij/ http://ideas.repec.org/e/pva109.html who is 1. a brilliant programmer (even better since he took a year off to earn money removing "millennium bugs" in 1998) and 2. a very good scientific writer indeed ( I learned today...) and 3.. very much interested in the dynamics of complex networks.

I hope Marco can direct Thomas a bit for the sake of open science...

I will be happy to give you access to the icanis system at the front machine, rishu. Getting to the back end machine is a bit more involved because it is behind a firewall in my NY office, but I can set something up. Maybe you can give me another machine to do the calculations, and we can move. My intention is to add a "// interface" that will give full access to the software from a web interface. This is not done yet. Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel http://authorprofile.org/pkr1 skype: thomaskrichel
