1. A method of managing objects within a simulation model, the method comprising:

  • storing a first set of values for a set of parameters of objects of the simulation model, the first set of values being representative of a first model scenario;

    displaying a first panel within a user interface;

    in response to an identification of the set of parameters of the objects of the simulation model for display within the first panel displaying an identifier for each parameter of the set of parameters within the first panel;

    receiving a second set of values for the set of parameters of the objects via the first panel, the second set of values being representative of a second model scenario;

    storing the second set of values for the set of parameters of the objects separately from the first set of values for the set of parameters of the objects, so as concurrently to store both the first and the second sets of values for the set of parameters of the objects;

    in response to a first user selection, performing a first simulation utilizing the simulation model inclusive of the first set of values for the set of parameters of the objects; and

    in response to a second user selection, performing a second simulation utilizing the simulation model inclusive of the second set of values for the parameters of the objects.
