The media-modeling tool was kicked into high gear two years ago when Chad Jacoby, senior manager of Nissan's Business Intelligence Unit, used years of Nissan's consumer research to build a computer model comparing the relationship of each phase of their "purchase funnel"--from awareness to purchase consideration to a transaction--to the phase before it.
It can be made a model of DNA, or a model of a whole city like this one is, and sometimes they can make the model exist in the silicon of a computer, so you've got a computer model, and other times, they actually use real silicon and sand, which they're doing it, in this case, like a giant hands-on model.
They're using data collected by the weather service during the storm, to try to understand the surge, try to understand the wave heights, and they're going to create a computer model, as opposed to the scale model of a city, for the storm as it came up from the south and the Gulf of Mexico, and see if they can recreate the exact conditions.
And if a faulty computer model leads a bank to make deals at too low a price, the problem is likely to afflict an entire series of trades, rather than just a single transaction.
The scientists used a powerful computer model to simulate how a liquid released at the spill site would disperse and circulate, producing results that are not dependent on the total amount released.

According to a new computer model, liquid methane in contact with a partially hydrogen-terminated diamond surface at extremely high pressures and temperatures spontaneously forms longer hydrocarbons, and hence the material of crude oil could be formed deep in the earth.
They developed a climate computer model for the archipelago that was based on a mid-range temperature projection being used for a big upcoming UN global-climate report - the 5th Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
