Hierarchical modeling process • Draw high-level aggregated reference mode (RM) • Develop high-level aggregated dynamic hypothesis • For each module in this dynamic hypothesis (DH): – Draw reference mode – Develop dynamic hypothesis – Repeat this step for this DH if going down another level Or for each module in this DH: • Build and test stock-flow submodel • Combine submodels (at this level) and verify the reference mode • Analyze module behavior
Summary • Hierarchical modeling process effectively decomposes large problems – Natural extension to standard process – Reference modes and dynamic hypotheses at each level increase confidence in model – Shifts focus to details important at each level
• Caveats: – First-order loops do not appear at module level – Behavior at higher levels may not correspond exactly to their reference modes (variable correspondence) – Decomposition may assist structural disaggregration, rather than behavioral 24
