It is the objective of Science to formalize the relationships between observed quantities. The motivations of such a modelling procedure are varied, but can rougnly be collected around two pOles. If one is concerned with process control, one wants to find a model which wl11 De aDle to predlct tne process Denavlor, taKlng lnto account tne applled lnputs.
