Need for the committee
The Chairs encouraged me to start this thread that demonstrates the need for the CPMS committee. Instead of writing a single long text I decided to break this discussion thread into several smaller posts. Each one will show the need of our work. I will try to be as objective as I can and reference a...

Re: Review of summary document providing Committee overview
Hello Everybody, You may have seen the list of changes to the committee summary document. At the phone meeting I was asked to approve this list of changes with the entire committee. Please consider the post I made on May 16 and the responses Martin made on May 17, and Tina on May 20. You will need t...

Re: Definitions: Building a Glossary
Hi Ahmet,
Two more words you may want to consider are:
Traceability
Accountability
Although these may relate to other words the first is important to me and the latter is usually associated with it.
I hope you find those suitable.

Re: Credibility assessment: Is it a well posed problem?
Hi Marc, You are aiming to create a model publication repository. It seems a good idea. It is possible to use our bibliography repository for that and add a note to each publication we add. And place all models into a specific folder. Since you raised the idea, perhaps you can start with a few examp...

Changes to the summary document providing Committee overview
Hi Jerry, At Ahmet's request in the meeting I went through discussions and created a slide by slide list of changes. Please go though those changes and make sure that I did not miss anything and that I am representing well the consensus reached. Martin had other less specific comments that I could n...

Re: Review of summary document providing Committee overview
Thanks Ahmet, Your approach seems to fit the ideas Lealem put in writing. And I understand the difference. I am just trying to figure out our scope. It seems that we are focusing on computational models alone. And if they assist other modeling, we stop at the computational part. What about simulatio...

Short Summary of the discussion so far
As the chairs requested, I am attempting to briefly summarize the discussion so far. Details can be seen in the previous posts. Tony, Martin, and I posted replies to the committee presentation. Martin mentioned NASA definitions that may be helpful to define the scope. There are several standard docu...

Re: Review of summary document providing Committee overview
Hi Lealem, and all, Your idea of keeping distance from some topics such as education and training makes sense. Yet there is a grey area there that may need attention. If a predictive computational model is used to power an educational model. For example predict blood flow to calculate blood pressure...

Re: Review of summary document providing Committee overview
One more important thought regarding the committee overview document. It seems that training in healthcare is not specifically mentioned. I am now in MODSIM world and I am encountering many simulations for training purposes. There are many examples including games, and non computational simulation t...

Re: Review of summary document providing Committee overview
Hi Martin, Hi Ahmet, Both of you have valid points. Human repetitive jobs are a good target for automation. Yet this can be expanded to some decisions as well. Here is one example that may clarify things: Medical devices that recommend dosage. This is traditionally something a human doctor was doing...
