Researchers develop simulation models that emulate real-world
situations. While these simulation models are simpler than the real
situation, they are still quite complex and time consuming to
develop. It is at this point that metamodeling can be used to help
build a simulation study based on a complex model. A metamodel is a
simpler, analytical model, auxiliary to the simulation model, which
is used to better understand the more complex model, to test
hypotheses about it, and provide a framework for improving the
simulation study. The use of metamodels allows the researcher to
work with a set of mathematical functions and analytical techniques
to test simulations without the costly running and re-running of
complex computer programs. In addition, metamodels have other
advantages, and as a result they are being used in a variety of
ways: model simplification, optimization, model interpretation,
generalization to other models of similar systems, efficient
sensitivity analysis, and the use of the metamodel's mathematical
functions to answer questions about different variables within a
simulation study.
