Abstract :
Effective simulation models require robust development methodologies. Planning, design, data, and testing are integral to ensure valuable answers to the model´s customers. This paper discusses how supporting static models provide guidelines and directional correctness to simulation models. Static models can also provide supplemental answers which allow the reduction in simulation model complexity.
