Combining System Dynamics and Multidimensional Modelling - A Metamodel Based Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Online analytical processing (OLAP) as a modern business intelligence (BI) concept provides support for representing vast amounts of data for supporting management " s decisions. Though, there is no inherent support for the representation of causal structures which could provide a foundation for advanced analysis like what-if or scenario techniques. System Dynamics (SD) is an approach with a long tradition used for modelling and simulation of complex systems, which could provide a causal complement for OLAP. This paper aims at integrating OLAP and SD on a linguistic level. Therefore linguistic metamodels of the corresponding conceptual modelling languages are derived and related towards each other, creating a translational relationship between the languages.

Relating System Dynamics and Multidimensional Data Models - A Metamodel based Language Mapping
System Dynamics (SD) is an approach with a long tradition used for modelling and simulation of complex system. Early, a conceptual modelling language was applied to bridge the ‘linguistic gap’ between the natural language of the model users and the targeted simulation language. Despite the maturity of the modelling approach, up to today no linguistic metamodel exists for the used language, resu...

متن کاملModelling the Dynamics of Human Resources Capacity in Health Care Services A Case Study of Khatam-al-Anbia Hospital of Mashhad
Background: In service organizations such as hospitals, human resources (HR) play a key role in the quality of service delivery. Lack of a systemic attitude in terms of system dynamics, HR planning have been somewhat distant from reality. In order to solve such a problem, this study aimed to modeling the dynamics of human resources capacity management system in healthcare services. Material...
متن کاملManipulation Control of a Flexible Space Free Flying Robot Using Fuzzy Tuning Approach
Cooperative object manipulation control of rigid-flexible multi-body systems in space is studied in this paper. During such tasks, flexible members like solar panels may get vibrated that in turn may lead to some oscillatory disturbing forces on other subsystems, and consequently produces error in the motion of the end-effectors of the cooperative manipulating arms. Therefore, to design and dev...
متن کاملMechanical System Modelling of Robot Dynamics Using a Mass/Pulley Model
The well-known electro-mechanical analogy that equates current, voltage, resistance, inductance and capacitance to force, velocity, damping, spring constant and mass has a shortcoming in that mass can only be used to simulate a capacitor which has one terminal connected to ground. A new model that was previously proposed by the authors that combines a mass with a pulley (MP) is shown to simulat...
