Inventory Model v2.0 adds production and order lead time. As well as the ability to keep track if parts are on order for a production run. See also: Inventory Model v3.0.

A small change in one variable can have a marked impact on multiple variables. Run the model (with height=0)  and consider the output. What happens if  you change to height=5. Run the model to find out. Was the change what you expected?

The delays associated with adjusting the shower is a very common example of the Balancing Loop with Delay Systems Archetype. 

Investigations into the relationships responsible for the success and failure of nations. This investigation was prompted after reading numerous references on the subject and perceiving that *Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty* by Acemoglu and Robinson seem to make a great deal of sense.

Adding images to a model typically assists in conveying meaning.

Purpose: Employ the Mono Lake model adapted from "Modeling the Environment" by Andrew Ford as a basis for developing a set of guidelines to support asynchronous multi-user model development.

Mono Lake is an ancient inland sea on the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada. From a policy point of view Mono Lake is the story of how a handful of people began a campaign to save a dying lake.

• 10.06.04 v1.0 created and documented by Bellinger. Initial problem with the reference mode has been fixed.

Through our endeavors we have identified and experimented with a number of environments that seem to satisfy the Web Based, Multi-User and Free requirements and seem well up to the task. It seems that while each environment has its strengths there are additional features we would like to see in each one that would enhance their utility.

OK, we have a problem. Yet, do we really know what the problem is? More often than not we look at the symptoms, consider them the problem and attempt to fix them. This actually dooms us to failure because they're only symptoms.

Examples of reinforcing and balancing loops enhanced with images to maybe them more visually engaging.

Macros are very useful for defining functions that need to be repeatedly at various places in the model.

Before we can begin to sort out how to approach this situation it's appropriate to identify the relevant stakeholders and their motivations.
