Abstract
Models used in qualitative simulation are suitable for use as formal cognitive models, such as those involved in representing language meaning. In a series of examples, we explore the mapping between natural language expressions and formal models used in computer simulation. We present a theoretical representation of categories and word meanings in which cognitive models play an important role. The examples illustrate the use of a model in reasoning and discourse, the expression of temporal relationships, verbal descriptions of mathematical expressions, and the generation of qualitative descriptions of model behavior. This work can be applied in the process of software engineering as natural language specifications are transformed into models, or model results are interpreted and reported by natural language generators. Furthermore, models of various kinds are necessary in systems that use language.
