  • Support model selection, design capture, model usage, design testing, and hardware/software codesign
  • Generate and promulgate consensus through publication and introduction to parallel working committees

BENEFITS

  • Unambiguous communication and model classification supports greater model reuse
  • Forms basis for interoperability conventions
