Running example: Throughout this paper, we will employ the model of Gatenby and Gillies (2004) for cell p.122) introduces the term "model-based view" to generically refer to the different "semantic" accounts. We argue that the underlying idea, i.e. the two-button approach, may make formal models of cancer more appealing defines an informal model, while the (interpreted) formal specification can be (formally) related to some expression of a mathematical model.
