<section begin=glossary />
- A detailed and explicit description of a computation procedure. D↷ A model can be automatically run by a computer after the input parameters have been entered. The output of the computation is optimally the result of a variable. A model relates to the "management" subattribute of the "process" template. [1]<section end=glossary />
