Rationale Models for Conceptual Modeling

2008
In developing information systems conceptual models are used for varied purposes. Since the modeling process is characterized by interpretation and abstracting the situation at hand it is essential to enclose information about the design process the modelers went through. This aspect is often discarded.

A Conceptual Model for Services

2015
Models are a mainstay of every scientific and engineering discipline. Models are typically more accessible to study than the systems. Models are instruments that are effectively functioning within a scenario. The effectiveness is based on an associated set of methods and satisfies requirements of usage of the model.

The Theory of Conceptual Models, the Theory of Conceptual Modelling and Foundations of Conceptual Modelling

2011
Conceptual modelling is a widely applied practice and has led to a large body of knowledge on constructs that might be used for modelling and on methods that might be useful for modelling. It is commonly accepted that database application development is based on conceptual modelling.

A conceptual model of groupware

Proceedings of the 1994 ACM conference on Computer supported cooperative work - CSCW '94, 1994
This paper discusses a conceptual model of groupware consisting of three complementary components or models: a description of the objects and operations on these objects available in the system; a description of the activities (and their orderings) that the users of the system can perform; and a description of the interface of users with the system ...

Conceptual Models

JONA: The Journal of Nursing Administration, 1987
What criteria would you use to assess the conceptual model you choose to guide your nursing department's practice? Whether you are assessing a model for your own use or critiquing someone else's, there are several considerations relating to the model's utility that should be kept in mind.

Conceptual Modeling in a World of Models

1999
Not so long ago only the very few concerned themselves with abstraction and modeling and with making sense of abstract models of the world around us. At the previous turn of century there were only 1000 living physicist. This indicates how low was the number of people who made a living from abstract work. Most people were occupied with manual work.

A Conceptual Model for XML

2004
We claim that document engineering (the systematic development of document presentations, representations and document tools) should be firmly based on explicit, formal and abstract document models. This precept is well accepted and practiced in, for example, the database community but it is, apparently, less accepted in the XML community.

A Conceptual Model of the Blockchain

2020
Hyperledger Fabric is a very large project under the umbrella of the Linux Foundation, with hundreds of developers involved. In this paper we will illustrate how the application of fact-based modeling will help us in understanding some basic features of the blockchain concept as is used in Hyperledger Fabric (HLF) and that it can serve as a conceptual ...

A Conceptual Model of Sleep

Archives of General Psychiatry, 1966
REASONS why sleep occurs and is necessary are not understood. Various models are more notable by their obvious inadequacy than by their reconciliation of a wide variety of observations. Both apparent common sense and the considered judgment of authorities "hardly doubt the metabolic basis of the nervous exhaustion . . .

The Science of Conceptual Modelling

2011
Conceptual modelling is one of the central activities in Computer Science. Conceptual models are mainly used as intermediate artifact for system construction. They are schematic descriptions of a system, a theory, or a phenomenon of an origin thus forming a model. A conceptual model is a model enhanced by concepts.
