Title
Conceptual modeling: definition, purpose and benefits.
Abstract
Over the last decade there has been a growing interest in 'conceptual modeling' for simulation. This is signified by a greater intensity of research and volume of papers on the topic. What is becoming apparent, however, is that when it comes to conceptual modeling there are quite different views and opinions. These differences may be beneficial for creating a debate that takes the field forward, but they can also lead to confusion. The purpose of this panel is for leading researchers to identify and discuss their views on conceptual modeling. In particular we will debate the definition, purpose and benefits of conceptual modeling for the field of simulation. Through the discussion we hope to highlight common ground and key areas of difference.
