The Influence of Psychic Costs on Rural‐Urban Migration
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1982AbstractPsychic costs reflect differences in interregional utility, an important determinant of population among regions. Following Sjaastad's definition of psychic costs, the consumer surplus foregone by Appalachian migrants in two urban areas was measured as the difference between current urban income and an acceptable income level in eastern ...

MIGRATION LETTERS, 2009
Much has been written about the costs—and benefits--of migration--in terms of the costs to the US (or receiving regions) and of the benefits to migrants. Massey (2005) concludes that because (Mexican) immigrants pay taxes, they are not a drain on public services.

Migration Costs in Destinations
2017This chapter fills a data void by examining what workers—interviewed where they worked—paid in their countries of origin for their foreign jobs. Workers were interviewed in Korea, Kuwait, and Spain in 2014, and in Malaysia in 2015; it was found that worker-paid migration costs were less than a month’s foreign earnings in Korea and Spain, but more in ...

2010 14th Conference on Optical Network Design and Modeling (ONDM), 2010
In this paper a cost analysis case study of migrating services from an SDH network platform into a packet based transport network is presented. The Net Present Value (NPV) of the costs of actively migrating the services is compared with the NPV of the costs of operating the SDH platform for the regular duration of all remaining services. Different cost

Migration cost externality and interregional equilibrium
The Annals of Regional Science, 1994"This paper will investigate the characteristics of population allocation between two regions in the presence of migration cost. It will also examine both populations and the non-migration range of the initial population in which migration does not occur, in social optimum and market equilibrium with central government intervention, to reveal ...

Migration in Insects: Cost and Strategies
The Journal of Animal Ecology, 19931. An optimal energy partitioning model is used to predict the optimum adult sizes of the soma, gonads and flight apparatus in insects. A comparison of the investment in gonads and lipoidal reserves in winged and unwinged individuals in species from three families of aphids is used to test the predictions and define the cost of developing a flight ...

Models for Test Cost Minimization in Database Migration
INFORMS Journal on ComputingDatabase migration is a ubiquitous need faced by enterprises that generate and use vast amounts of data. This is because of database software updates, or it is from changes to hardware, project standards, and other business factors. Migrating a large collection of databases is a way more challenging task than migrating a single database because of the

Migration Costs of Returning Workers
2017This chapter analyzes data on what workers—interviewed as they returned from jobs in Gulf Cooperation Council countries—paid several years earlier at home to get their jobs. The most important finding is the big difference in cost by corridor. The gap between the highest and lowest cost corridor was 9 to 1, reflecting the average $4,400 paid by ...
