This approach emphasises three key aspects to this development of a simulation as a scientific instrument: the use of explicit models to capture the scientific domain, the engineered simulation platform, and the experimental results of running simulations; the use of arguments to provide evidence that the scientific instrument is fit for purpose; and the close co-working of domain scientists and simulation software engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Part I the authors provide a managerial overview: the rationale for and benefits of using the CoSMoS approach, and a small worked example to demonstrate it in action. Part II is a catalogue of the core patterns. Part III lists more specific \"helper\" patterns, showing possible routes to a simulation. Finally Part IV documents CellBranch, a substantial case study developed using the CoSMoS approach.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45275667955863,"sku":"9783030132026","price":7345.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783030132026.webp?v=1769283589","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/engineering-simulations-as-scientific-instruments-a-pattern-language-with-kieran-alden-paul-s-andrews-james-l-bown-alastair-droop-richard-b-g-9783030132026","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
