Modeling the purposes of models
, 2012 Today, the purpose of a model is often kept implicit. The lack of explicit statements about a model's purpose hinders both its creation and its (re)use. In this paper, we adapt two goal modeling techniques, the Goal-Question-Metric paradigm and KAOS, an intentional modeling language, so that the purpose of a model can be explicitly stated and ...

Is the Voter Model a Model for Voters? [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2014 The voter model has been studied extensively as a paradigmatic opinion dynamics' model. However, its ability for modeling real opinion dynamics has not been addressed. We introduce a noisy voter model (accounting for social influence) with agents' recurrent mobility (as a proxy for social context), where the spatial and population diversity are taken ...
