Dynare is a package that runs with MATLAB to solve, simulate and estimate macroeconomic models. It is a powerful and highly customizable engine, with an intuitive front-end interface, to solve, simulate and estimate Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models.

Documentation

The standard Dynare Documentation includes a Quickstart, Tutorial, Wiki, User Forums, Reference Manual, and User Guide.

Using Dynare

On the SSCC, MATLAB is configured at startup with Dynare, so you do not need to add it to your path. To see which version of Dynare is provided, type the MATLAB command ver.

Example Dynare Programs

Example programs are provided in the tests directory specific to the Dynare release. For example, for release 4.2.4:

/sscc/opt/dynare-4.2.4/tests

Dynare++

Dynare++ is a standalone C++ version of Dynare specialized in computing
k-order approximations of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models.

It is not part of MATLAB. Run it from the shell with the command

dynare++
