Verification and validation of computer simulation models

Verification and validation (V&V) are critical processes in the development of computer simulation models that ensure the models are both accurate and reliable for their intended applications. ### Verification Verification is the process of determining whether a simulation model correctly implements the intended algorithms and mathematical formulations. In other words, it checks if the model has been built right. Key aspects of verification include: 1. **Code Verification**: Ensuring that the code is error-free and behaves as expected.
