I suspected we might arrive here :-)
I will ask and I will think about a stripped down version.
For information, the original development was in MathCad, and published here:
http://www.debtdeflation.com/blogs/qed/
Note that the comments state the code is not Open Source.
There are some other, related, sources on the internet.
If you are content with a _very_ stripped down version add these :
initial conditions:
x4=0.15; y4=0.33; s4=5; m4=0;
Algebra:
h=i;
g = (y4-m4)*exp((X(i,7)-x4)*s4/(y4-m4)) +m4; # phillips curve calculation
g=g+Variable;
# This is perhaps one twentieth of the calculations carried out in the inner
loop.
# I'd suppose if you did this 20 times it might approximate to the
# CPU load for the model.

Sometimes tools such as, quadratic optimisation, or least squared errors can
be used to quickly maximise (or minimise) some feature of your model without
much human intervention. For example, minimising the time taken for an
aircraft to reach a particular altitude by hand would add little to my
knowledge of how an aircraft works, hence it is best left to the computer
to optimise the parameters in that example.
This model is complex, in the sense that it is difficult to predict how
it will behave - at least in my limited experience. Hence chosing which
variable to alter, how to alter it etc, by manually changing some lines
of octave code, helps me to understand the model.
