ein erstes qualitatives Modell, welches über KNOW-WHY.NET gern geladen und zu einem eigenen, alternativen Modell verändert werden kann. Siehe auch das englische Modell, welches kollaborativ bearbeitet werden kann: https://www.know-why.net/model/CY7aksh7qgaQkCiULQUJN1A

This is a small example model that shows how to use normal factors and delays to model delivery times (so you do not always have to use PiM factors); how to identify the optimal quantity of orders and how to identify the optimal number of resources. Do not hesitate to ask for more explanations or some variations of the model :-)

Just a small general model on tipping points (using the Bass function that can be found e.g. in Sterman's 'Business Dynamics'). The model distinguishes between first movers, early adopters and the tipping point (Malcolm Gladwell) of an adaption by the majority of potential adopters. Getting from early adopters to the majority can be named 'crossing the chasm' (by G.A. Moore). The model can be used for both, explorative qualitative modeling of factors the hinder and foster the tipping point, or a continuation of the quantitative modeling of effects that describe when a tipping point might not be reached, e.g. because of incidents that make the change less attractive and thus even reverse it (or example the use ...»

The challenge behind this model was to collect units in a box and to take them from the boxes again. There are probably other ways to model this but this was my first idea. 

Just a small model to show one possibility (of probably many) to model depreciations of purchases/goods

The aim of this little model is to explore the project modeling possibilities of the PROCESS-iMODELER (it is called PROCESS-iMODELER though it is just a feature of the quantitative iMODELER). The project at hand is the building of a small garden house. The model probably isn't complete in its details as it just should show the functionality. This version of the garden house model shows how to model likelihoods of incidents e.g. of a person becoming ill or the occurrence of a quality problem.

Here it is the modeling of a learning curve and the definition of working hours for resources.

This mini model shows one of two ways to calculate costs within PROCESS-iMODELER models. Costs can be either as shown in another model the directly associated costs or like shown here the costs of the availability of the resources. For the availability of resources you simply sum up the cost of a resource times the number of principally available resources. The use of level resources can either be equally their principal availability or their use. For this you can use the possibility to connect a process or project factor with a normal factor and than select a "used...resource..." value that you just have to multiply with the cost per unit of the resource.

This mini model shows one of two ways to calculate costs within PROCESS-iMODELER models. Costs can be either as shown here the directly associated costs or like shown in another model the costs of the availability of the resources. For the associated costs you simply connect the process factors to a normal factor and use the costs() function times the process. The costs() value of each process step is the sum of the costs (a parameter of the resource- and level-resource factors) that are connected with the process step.
