Meadows – a small language for stock-and-flow diagrams that run

Meadows introduces a lightweight language for modeling stock-and-flow diagrams that can run, potentially making it easier for organizations to simulate complex systems and reason about operational dynamics. For CIOs and technology leaders, the strategic value lies in using executable models to improve decision-making, scenario planning, and communication across business and technical teams, while IT can leverage such tools to support more data-driven planning and systems thinking. If adopted, approaches like this could reduce reliance on static diagrams and make business models more testable and actionable.
