MML: towards a Multiscale Modeling Language
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent multiscale applications require more and more often the coupling of many sub-models, usually originating form different fields of science. Therefore, it is increasingly important to propose an effective description language that can help scientists with different background to co-develop a multiscale application. We propose a Multiscale Modeling Language (MML) i.e. a description language aiming at specifying the architecture of a multiscale simulation program. We will illustrate this approach by proposing a MML description of a computer model for restenosis in a stented vessel.

A Distributed Multiscale Computation of a Tightly Coupled Model Using the Multiscale Modeling Language
Nature is observed at all scales; with multiscale modeling, scientists bring together several scales for a holistic analysis of a phenomenon. The models on these different scales may require significant but also heterogeneous computational resources, creating the need for distributed multiscale computing. A particularly demanding type of multiscale models, tightly coupled, brings with it a numb...
متن کاملThe Metamodelling Language Calculus: Foundation Semantics for UML
The Metamodelling Language (MML) is a sub-set of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) that is proposed as the core language used to bootstrap the UML 2.0 definition initiative. Since it is metacircular, MML requires an external formal semantics in order to ground it. This paper defines the MML Calculus which is used to formally define MML and therefore provides a semantic basis for UML 2.0.
متن کاملMinimum Encoding Approaches for Predictive Modeling
We analyze differences between two information-theoretically motivated ap proaches to statistical inference and model selection: the Minimum Description Length (MDL) principle, and the Minimum Message Length (MML) principle. Based on this analysis, we present two revised versions of MML: a pointwise estimator which gives the MML-optimal single parameter model, and a volumewise estimator which ...
متن کاملAn Action Semantics for MML
This paper describes an action semantics for UML based on the Meta-Modelling Language (MML) a precise meta-modelling language designed for developing families of UML languages. Actions are defined as computational procedures with side-effects. The action semantics are described in the MML style, with model, instance and semantic packages. Different actions are described as specializations of th...
متن کاملInvestigation of Vacancy Defects on the Young’s Modulus of Carbon Nanotube Reinforced Composites in Axial Direction via a Multiscale Modeling Approach
In this article, the influence of various vacancy defects on the Young’s modulus of carbon nanotube (CNT) - reinforcement polymer composite in the axial direction is investigated via a structural model in ANSYS software. Their high strength can be affected by the presence of defects in the nanotubes used as reinforcements in practical nanocomposites. Molecular structural mechanics (MSM)/finite ...
