....without resorting to any mathematical abstraction. This was also called naive physics. Initial research focussed on modeling our causal perception of the world [72] Qualitative physics took shape during the 80 s when its formulation moved closer to the mathematical models of classic physics [29, 20]. Qualitative models are more general than their quantitative counterparts. Unfortunately this generality makes them nondeterministic. Qualitative simulators generate branching simulation traces named envisionments [20] where each path is a behavior. Most of these behaviors are spurious due to ....
....assembly. The qualitative simulations are produced with QSIM [55] 3.2.2 SIMGEN SIMGEN [34, 35, 36] is a semi qualitative self explanatory simulation compiler. It uses the modeling language of the Qualitative Process Engine (QPE) 31] which is directly based on the Qualitative Process Theory [29]. SIMGEN is currently used to produce simulations for online virtual laboratories [71] SIMGEN s first version, Mk1 [34] would perform a total envisionment to compute all the possible qualitative states the simulation could reach. The direct benefit of this method is to know all the equation ....
