Abstract
An implicit requirement associated with modelling and simulation projectswithin the realm of CTDS models is a means for solving the differential equations embedded in the conceptual model. In very special cases these equations can fall into a category for which closed-formanalytic solutions can be developed and this certainly has many advantages. Far more common, however, is the case where the features of the equations preclude such a solution approach. In such situations,numerical approximation procedures provide the only solution alternative.
