Authors:   Lin Zhang, Yuewei Shen, Xuesong Zhang, Xiao Song, Fei Tao, Ying Liu

Abstract

The model is the foundation for simulation, especially for the complex system simulation. To meet the challenges in development and management of the complex system model, this paper proposes the concept of the model engineering, which aims at setting up a systematic, normalized, and quantifiable engineering methodology by exploring basic principles in model construction, management and maintenance to manage the data, processes and organizations/people involved in the full lifecycle of a model to guarantee the credibility of model lifecycle. The meaning and contents of the model engineering are given, a set of key technologies are introduced. A preliminary framework of the body of knowledge of the model engineering is given based on software engineering, system engineering and some other relative disciplines.
