I think, Model Theory (mathematical) may be the most important foundation for models.
However, it seems there are some basic puzzles, such as some inconsistencies in the use for term of model?
Are there anybody who is interesting in, or have any clues for, this issue?

Totally agree, Model Theory is it, but please let it be finite (here’s why: http://BIT.ly/eg9VHb )
Finite Model Theory has provided the essential basis FOR database theory. Think it could also do FOR modeling.
Nevertheless your completely RIGHT WHEN you say that there ARE SOME basic issues TO be sorted out IN the FIRST place.

I have the same thought.

For this direction, I have SOME framework looks quite concise, SOME OF the thoughts appeared IN the essays LIKE this: http://wp.me/pL4Tp-lD (but IN Chinese now).
I see it IS SOME sort OF the basic OF general model/modeling theory

tried TO READ it, but ‘somehow’ could NOT manage ;o)
some TRANSLATION would definitely be interesting.
I’m usually posting my stuff here: http://modelpractice.wordpress.com/
looking forward to read yours.

I am reading your blog these days. But I have poor English so reading and writing very slowly:-p
BTW, Can you open the English version of EE-Forum.org? (There are only a few essays in English now)
