A policy informatics analyst is a person who is positioned to actually execute a policy informatics initiative.
True
False
Question 2
The standard view refers to the well-known questions and methods of verification, namely whether the code does what it is supposed to do and whether there are any bugs, and validation, namely whether the outputs (for given inputs/parameters) resemble observations of the target, although (because the processes being modelled are stochastic and because of unmeasured factors) identical outputs are not to be expected, as discussed in detail in Gilbert and Troitzsch (1997).
True
False
Question 3
Validating a simulation against empirical data is about comparing "the real world" and the simulation output; it is comparing what you observe as the real world with what you observe as the output.
True
