Abstract: Abstract The concept of model has deep historical roots and definitely it is not unambiguous. Especially it is used in both common life and science. In this book, we think of a model as a simplified representation of the reality. Depending on the goal of investigation, a human makes some simplifications intentionally leaving the real system without many details and many features, which are unnecessary from the awaited goal viewpoint.
