Information modeling with the help of a computer

Modern information modeling uses a computer as its main tool. The computer allows you to write any texts, building a verbal model, draw diagrams and maps (a system of graphic models), build diagrams and tables. But such use of the computer in modeling will reveal its possibilities incompletely.

The main advantage of a computer in comparison with a human being is the ability of a machine to quickly count and execute in a second a billion operations with a system of many-valued numbers. Therefore, computer information modeling has recently become more popular.

Any process occurring in technology, nature, social and economic systems can be described by means of complex mathematical relationships. To this scientists resorted even in ancient times, even before the advent of the computer, creating such formulas that could be calculated "on the fingers." Therefore, information modeling in antiquity was relatively simple and often erroneous.

With the advent of the same computer, this problem was solved. Now it became possible to quickly and easily perform mathematical calculations of the most complex models. Scientists today can not limit themselves when creating models, relying on their performance.

Information modeling is a special way that realizes the calculations of the state of the system taking into account the functioning of models in the present, past and future. The most striking example of its use is the possibility of stopping nuclear tests, which lead to significant environmental damage. Information modeling with powerful computers will allow all to calculate and predict the possible consequences, which will lead to changes in the design of nuclear weapons. Therefore, it will be possible to "press the detonator" inside the computer without destroying anything. This became possible due to visualization of possible results and due to correct calculations.

Modeling information processes involves the use of graphics. It will allow to "see" inaccessible points, places of the given object during the experiment.

Let us dwell on the features of control taking into account information modeling.

It is used to carry out and control the operation of reactors at stations, factories, accelerators in laboratories, flight stations and so on. Managing a laboratory or production plant, the computer can calculate its first characteristics. This is necessary in order to be able to remove in time the readings from each sensor, or to exert the necessary influence on them: turn on the button, close the valve and so on. This will be possible in accordance with the information models embedded in the management program . It will be important only that the available calculation results in the management of this process come in real time.

We will tell more on simulation simulation, which is
A special kind of information. It is used in special cases. Simulation modeling is necessary when it comes to the behavior of a complex system whose elements behave randomly and whose movement can not be predicted in advance. Therefore, it is difficult to calculate its trajectory, but it is possible to "play" on the computer screen.

Simulation modeling is usually used when it comes to service systems: trade, car service, transportation systems, ambulance and so on. The main task, which is solved when using it, is the search for modes of their operation, methods of receiving applications, and so on.
