Working with model diagrams
Working with the model diagram is the heart of the modelling process. The model diagram is a graphical representation of the all the elements and relationships within the system being modelled. Using the model diagram elements, and the tools described here, an infinite range of models can be created. All work on the model diagram uses a selection mechanism to determine the elements affected.
