| Abstract: | Because of the difficulties often experienced in formulating and
understanding large scale models, much current research is directed
towards developing systems to support the construction and understanding
of management science models. This paper discusses seven different
methods for representing mathematical programming models during the
formulation phase of the modeling process. The approaches discussed are
block-schematic, algebraic, three different kinds of graphical schemes,
a database-oriented approach and Structured Modeling. We emphasize
representations that have graphical elements suitable for incorporation
in the interface to a modeling system. The different methods are
compared using a common example and the transformations that allow one
to go from one representation to another are discussed. |
