There are many definitions of the word model. The following definitions refer to a model as a representation of selected aspects of a domain of interestdomain of interestto the modeler: 1. a physical, mathematical, or otherwise logical representation of a systemsystem, entity, phenomenon, or processprocess(DoD 1998); 2. a representation of one or m...
A physical modelphysical model is a concrete representation of an actual system that can be felt and touched. Other models may be more abstract representations of a system or entity. These models rely on a modeling languagemodeling language to express their meaning as explained in “On Ontology, Ontologies, Conceptualizations, Modeling Languages, an...
Models are created by a modeler using modeling tools. For physical models, the modeling tools may include drills, lathes, and hammers. For more abstract models, the modeling tools are typically softwaresoftwareprograms running on a computer. These programs provide the ability to express modeling constructs using a particular modeling language. A wo...

Many system modeling methods and associated modeling languages have been developed and deployed to support various aspects of system analysis, design, and implementation. Functional modeling languages include the data flow diagram (DFD) (Yourdon and Constantine 1979), Integration Definition for Functional Modeling (IDEF0) (Menzel and Maier 1998), a...

Modeling as a scientific research method. Whether developing a conceptual model like the atomic model, a physical model like a miniature river delta, or a computer model like a global climate model, the first step is to define the system that is to be modeled and the goals for the model.
Within modeling and simulation, a model is a task-driven, purposeful simplification and abstraction of a perception of reality, shaped by physical, legal, and cognitive constraints. It is task-driven because a model is captured with a certain question or task in mind.
