| A model is most often described some kind of "pattern, plan, representation or description designed to demonstrate the main object or workings of an object, system or concept". |
| In fact in many cases, it is models we use in our daily lives to deal with reality as realistic systems incorporating real-life data are far too complex to handle. Many applicances actually incorporate models as the "human" interface to a more complex machine such as the driver's controls and panel for steering and running a car or plane, or even the humble thermostat for a heating/air conditioning system. |
| One way to view UCADIA is as a series of models designed to assist in improved use of limited resources, structures of society, technology, education and other applications. |
| Here are some models that relate to individual needs that might be of assistance. |
