The reason for this is simple: tens of thousands of economic time series are seasonally adjusted and published every month or quarterbydozensofstatisticalagenciesaroundtheworld,andthesedatapro- vide much of the empirical foundation for macroeconomic policymaking. The sheer bulk of these data warrants continual improvements to methodology. Research on time series modeling, and particularly on seasonal time series modeling, exploded with the publication of the book, Time Series Analysis: Forecasting and Control, by Box and Jenkins in 1970. Also of considerable importance was the not unrelated appearance around that time of computer software for fitting seasonal time series models. First, computer programs written for this specific purpose appeared, and then time series modeling ca- pabilities began to appear in various statistical software packages, making these modeling capabilities widely available. Parallel developments in seasonal adjustment methodology occurred sep- arately and even slightly earlier. In 1953, Julius Shiskin introduced the first computerized method of seasonal adjustment on the U.S. Census Bureau’s UNIVAC I computer. This approach, called Method I, was quickly replaced by Method II, X-1 variant, with successive improvements culminating in the mid-1960swiththefamousX-11program.Furtherdevelopmentssawseasonal adjustment start borrowing recently developed techniques from time series modeling, as in the X-11-ARIMA method and program of Estela Dagum and StatisticsCanada,andinthedevelopmentoftimeseriesmodel-basedmethods of seasonal adjustment. Additionally, problems faced in seasonal adjustment inspired further developments in seasonal time series modeling methodology. Tofacilitatethiscross-fertilization,in1976and1981theCensusBureauorga- nized conferences on the modeling and seasonal adjustment of economic time series. These conferences brought academic statisticians and econometricians doingresearchontimeseriesmodelingtogetherwithgovernmentstatisticians working on the enhancement of seasonal adjustment methods. In the midst of much of this exciting activity was David Findley, who ar- rived at the U.S. Census Bureau in the early 1980s to supervise a small staff focused on research and computer software development to improve the tech- niquesofmodelingandseasonaladjustmentofeconomictimeseries.Inhisown research, David made important contributions to time series model selection ix K12089 Chapter: 0 page: ix date: February 14, 2012
