To help understanding the multifaceted concept of DiDIY it is important to introduce its operational definition (D3.1, par 2.4):
Introducing DiDIY D3.2: Integrative Modelling (Work and Organization)
Integrative modelling is a term coined to describe a particular way of simulation modelling, where researchers take data from a wide variety of sources (e.g. interviews with experts, literature reviews, excerpts from statistical databases, or surveys of the public) in order to develop a detailed simulation model. Such a model could be said to "integrate" the available data.
Introducing DiDIY D3.3: Ethical issues and work
Are you a Trade Union representative?
