GoldSim provides tools that allow you to internally document your model such that the documentation becomes part of the model itself, and hence is immediately available to anyone viewing the model.
GoldSim allows you to add text, images and other graphic objects directly to your model. In addition, you can add hyperlinks to other documents (e.g., a web site or a report). Clicking on the hyperlink then opens that document.
As discussed previously, GoldSim was specifically designed to allow you to organize model elements into a hierarchy (using Containers). This facilitates the creation of "top-down" models, in which the level of detail increases as you "push down" into the containment hierarchy. Such a capability is essential if you wish to effectively describe and explain your model at different levels of detail to different audiences. For example, your manager may only want to see the "big picture", while a technical colleague may want to see the low-level details of a particular model.
The ability to create hierarchical, top-down models, in which at any level, details can be "hidden" (inside containers), coupled with GoldSim's powerful documentation features, allows you to design models which can be effectively explained to any audience at the appropriate level of detail.
