Purpose |
| Assumption Document |
This document will provide a central location for an in-depth treatment of
assumptions on which the model is built. |
| Parameter Document |
The goal of a parameter document is to inform the reader of items in the mathematical
domain of the model, the sources used, pre-processing and the form particular parameters take and their
use in the modeling process. |
| Parameter Instance Document |
This document class provides a forum for providing actual parameter values used in
simulation. For any given parameter, there may be several values used in different scenarios. |
| Parameter Set Document |
This document will provide a template for the modeler to reference any number of
parameter instances and describe why they are chosen to implement a particular scenario. |
| Component Document |
Component documents describe certain individual elements of the simulation process in
the model. |
| Component Instance Document |
Occasionally, a model may employ one of several optional elemental processes. This
document type is similar to the Parameter Instance Document, but describes a process rather than a
parameter. |
| Component Set Document |
This document allows the modeler to enumerate a set of component instances and
explain their combined use. |
| Output Document |
The purpose of this document is to clearly define a given output the model
produces. |
| Output Instance |
Each model run will produce specific model results or outputs. This document allows
documentation of specific values produced by the model. |
| Result Document |
A result is a set of output instances produced by a given run. |
| Version Document |
This document will provide a connection between the current version of the model and
previous versions. |
