- W128451645 abstract "Put simply a model is a representation of 'something else'. Models may take many forms ranging from scaled models used to represent real world physical objects, such as buildings and new consumer products, to sophisticated computer models used to represent quite complex and often abstract systems, such as financial and investment strategies. However since individuals perceive and interpret situations differently, the same can be said for their perceptions and interpretations of what a model might represent. In the case of a model this could include the model builder, users and even members of the public. Fundamental to the model building process, is the selection and use of various abstraction techniques used by model builders to simplify the 'something else' they are seeking to represent. One of the major issues concerned with simplifying 'something else', be it a relatively simple or complex situation, is determining which factors can be confidently removed from the situation without impacting on the reliability and validity of a model that is subsequently built to emulate or represent it. In essence, once a factor or series of factors are removed from a situation, the situation itself is changed. Further, models are often deliberately built and used specifically to form the basis for analysis and investigation over time using simulation techniques, the results of which are then used to support individual and organisational decision making the consequences of which may even impact on innocent third parties. In this context, this paper will provide a brief examination of the concept of simplification and various approaches to simplification utilised by model builders and simulationists. It will then attempt to provide an ethical analysis of the implications associated with how much and what kind of information should model and simulation builders be reasonably required to disclose to potential users of their products so that any decisions these users make on the basis of information obtained from a model or simulation output can be undertaken in the utmost good faith." @default.
