Abstract |
Linking computational models and their associated publications:
We performed a case study on a computational model used to inform the Dutch government about energy policy.
This model and its simulation results are described in a publication.
The model and publication have different goals and focus, but are both needed to get a complete picture of the underlying research.
Although more and more computational models and associated data become publicly accessible, the models themselves are often too
big or too complicated for people to understand easily. In practice, the publication serves as single source of information.
In this study we explore to what extent and by what means the links between the publication and the computational model can be made explicit. |
