Sammendrag
We discuss the underlying aspects of our computational engineering suite, implement-
ing application-specific reductionism. Our Process Modelling suite (ProMo) supports
complex multi-discipline and multi-scale models using discipline-specific basic building
blocks. An application-domain-specific ontology captures the involved disciplines and
their respective basic entities being the smallest granulates in each field. Each basic en-
tity is primarily equipped with a mechanistic mathematical input/output representation.
We augment this mechanistic approach with a holistic component by allowing multiple
definitions of these behaviour descriptions, thereby enabling empirical models. ProMo’s
ontology reasoner handles the resulting multi-directed variable/equation graphs represent-
ing the entity models. The discipline-related model components are linked together over
two mechanisms depending on the nature of their interaction. The concept of ”tokens”
provides the necessary abstraction, allowing for a network of networks description of
multi-disciplinary models.
