What’s new at TSP – last updated 27 December 2011

(12/27/11) TSP International will NOT be at the ASSA meetings in Chicago. This was decided months ago; it costs a fair amount of time and money, that we felt would be better spent doing development. Clint did attend all the meetings from 2000-2011 except for the infamous time in 2005 when he booked a flight from using the SJC airport code to Philadelphia, but found out at the San Jose California airport that SJC is San Jose, Costa Rica! :-) We have a few features under development to finish, and are also (finally) working on native Intel Mac versions.
If you have new TSP features to request, questions, or want to say hi, please send email! ( support@tspintl.com is the most direct)

(8/27/11) Extra copies of our TSP Reference Manual are now available from a print-on-demand publisher here. The User’s Guide will be available in the near future.

(4/6/11) Reminder -- please use the following email addresses to contact us:

info at tspintl.com – general inquiries, including pricing queries, and placing orders

support at tspintl.com – bug reports and technical queries, with as much information as you can provide (including a copy of the tsp run that is causing problems).

And do keep in mind that although messages on our phone are monitored by us, we are often not available to answer the phone immediately, so it is better to use email to contact us.

(3/31/11) We are updating our newsletter mailing list. If you want to subscribe and have not yet heard from us, you can opt-in to the mailing list here.

(3/29/11) Many of our users may be unaware that there are a large number of examples of using TSP on this website (over 400, plus additional examples for the Pindyck and Rubinfeld handbook and numerous accuracy benchmarks). These examples have been recently reorganized and the internal documentation improved, in hopes that more users will be able to make use of them. They cover a range of problems from simple examples of using TSP to complex models for maximum likelihood estimation when the model in question has not been “hard-coded” in TSP. They have also been grouped under the following headings: Benchmarks, linear, matrices, miscellaneous, ML+QDV, nonlinear, panel data, Pindyck & Rubinfeld, robust, statistical testing, time series, univariate, and a special advanced section where Clint puts his latest creations. See this page for a complete listing by type of example.

(2/28/11) Announcing the release of TSP 5.1 for computers running Linux. The single user academic price is $600, see the order page for more information about how to order this version.

(2/25/11) DOWNTIME: Our fax machine was offline for two weeks in January and early February. If you submitted an order during that period and have not heard from us, please get in touch at info@tspintl.com and/or resubmit the order.

(1/20/11) A list of updates and enhancements to TSP 5.1 since its initial release has been added to the support section.

(12/18/10) TSP International will be at the ASSA meetings in Denver, January 6-9 2011. We are sharing a booth with Timberlake Consulting – both Clint and Bronwyn will be there at various times. Come visit us and learn what’s new in TSP 5.1 and what is planned for the future.

(12/1/10) We are developing a new mailing list for the newsletter. Send an email to news at tspintl.com if you would like to be added to it.

(9/1/10) In an effort to improve our email responsiveness (we apologize for the many delays some of you have experienced), we have changed some email addresses. Please use the following addresses to contact us:

info at tspintl.com – general inquiries, including pricing queries, and placing orders

support at tspintl.com – bug reports and technical queries. We try to answer all of these, but keep in mind that we are not an econometric programming service, so we do not always have time to design estimation strategies and write your programs for you. We are happy to direct you to key references in the literature, however.

(7/28/10) Announcing the release of TSP 5.1 for the MAC. Runs on most operating systems, including Snow Leopard (with a compatibility package loaded). The single user academic price is $500, see the order page for more information about how to order this version.

(3/4/10) Want to order or upgrade to TSP 5.1? Here is the ordering information and here is a summary price list.
