Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Lack of documentation for simulation models impedes their shareability, reusability and composability. There are many organizational challenges that lead to a lack of documentation, and this can have long term consequences: wasted time and effort in the best of cases and irrevocable loss in the worst of cases. A standardized metadata approach is a way to preserve digital resources across time, to support reusability and to mitigate organizational challenges that result in undocumented models. In this paper, we present a metadata specification inspired from the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI) with additional elements to capture information specific to Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) simulation models. This work is meant as an initial step towards the establishment of a metadata standard for the preservation of simulation models.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
