Conceptual modelling is the abstraction of a simulation model from the real world system that is being modelled; in other words, choosing what to model, and what not to model. This is generally agreed to be the most difficult, least understood and most important task to be carried out in a simulation study. With reference to an example problem, we explore the problem of conceptual modelling. In particular, we define a set of terminology that helps us frame the conceptual modelling task, we outline a framework for performing conceptual modelling, and we identify the requirements for a good conceptual model.
