Mikromodellrammeverk

Mikromodellrammeverk, or micro-model framework, is a software framework designed to help developers build and integrate small, focused models—micro-models—into larger simulations or analyses. The approach emphasizes modularity, interoperability and composability, enabling teams to assemble complex systems from reusable components.

Core concepts include: micro-models that capture a single phenomenon or domain concept; standardized interfaces and data contracts; an orchestration layer that coordinates execution and data flow; a model registry or catalog for discovery and reuse; and tooling for testing, validation and versioning.

An architecture typically comprises a library of plug-in models, a runtime or simulation engine, configuration and dependency management, and observability tools such as logging and metrics. Interactions between models can be synchronous calls or asynchronous event streams, and data formats are often standardized to promote interoperability.

Common use cases include education and research simulations, urban or logistics modeling, system dynamics and agent-based models, digital twins of physical systems, and data processing pipelines where outcomes depend on multiple micro-models combined in a workflow.

Benefits include greater modularity, reuse of components, easier testing and experimentation, and the ability to evolve systems incrementally. Drawbacks include initial integration cost, potential performance overhead, and the need for robust versioning and compatibility management across models.

Related concepts include modular programming, model-driven engineering, and service-oriented architectures. Mikromodellrammeverk represents an approach to scalable modeling that favors small, verifiable components over large, monolithic models.
