“…These may include model creation and editing, querying and updating models, executing models, and generating reports so that others can replicate a set of modelling procedures [31,36,37]. The term model management was coined in the early-to-mid-seventies in the context of managing models for a decision support system, aiding in the creation, storage, retrieval, manipulation, and utilization of models for decision-makers, so they could make better use of the models [5,38,39]. These functions are analogous to those of a database management system, where the objects of interest are data records instead of models.…”

Abstract:The model environment is a key component that enables a virtual geographic environment (VGE) to meet the scientific requirements for simulating dynamic phenomena and performing analyses. Considering the comprehensiveness of geographic processes and the requirements for the replication of model-based research, this paper proposes a model base framework for a model environment of a VGE that supports both model construction and modelling management, resulting in improved reproducibility. In this framework, model management includes model metadata, creation, deposition, encapsulation, integration, and adaptation; while modelling management focuses on invoking the model, model computation, and runtime control of the model. Based on this framework, to consider the problem of ever-worsening air quality, we applied the Linux-Apache-MySQL-Perl stack plus Supervisor to implement the model base to support a VGE prototype using professional meteorological and air quality models. Using this VGE prototype, we simulated a typical air pollution case for January 2010. The prototype not only illustrates how a VGE application can be built on the proposed model base, but also facilitates air quality simulations and emergency management.

“…model composition, model maintenance and model delivery. Two key topics of interest in the model management literature are: (a) facilitating model reuse and distributed model management (Ba, Lang, & Whinston, 1997;Bhargava, Krishnan, & Muller, 1997;Mayer, 1998), and (b) enabling model integration and composition (Basu & Blanning, 1994, 1998Kottemann & Dolk, 1992). These two issues are closely related.…”

Distributed model management aims to support the wide-spread sharing and usage of decision support models. Web services is a promising technology for supporting distributed model management activities such as model creation and delivery, model composition, model execution and model maintenance to fulfill dynamic decision-support and problem solving requests. We propose a web services based framework for model management (called MM-WS) to support various activities of the model management life cycle. The framework is based on the recently proposed Integrated Service Planning and Execution (ISP & E) approach for web services integration. We discuss encoding of domain knowledge (as individual models) and utilize the MM-WS framework to interleave synthesis of composite models with their execution. A prototypical implementation with an example is used to illustrate the utility of the framework to enable distributed model management and knowledge integration. Benefits and issues of using the framework to support model-based decision-making in organizational contexts are outlined.
