Validation is the process by which we can determine if the model is a representation of the system. This is always performed while keeping the specific abstraction by the designer in mind. Verification is basically the debugging of the system where we ensure that the model that we build is working correctly. Credibility is achieved when the decisionmakers and other key project personnel accept the model as well as its results as “correct”.

Visual Validation

Visual validation is a face validation technique based on an animation based validation technique where the SME can examine the animation to see if the behavior appears to be similar to that expected in the actual domain.

Validation using VOMAS

In case of VOMAS, we can validate both spatially as well as non-spatially.
