A computer modeling and simulation framework for analysis automates selection of data, models and visualization outputs for providing an insight into a wide range of scenarios without a priori knowledge of the scenarios. The framework organizes the data and models through an ontology for the data and models. A challenge specification is entered by an analyst via a structured document or natural language input, wherein a reasoner processing component of the system selects relevant data sets and models based on the challenge specification and the data and model ontology. The system may provide confidence indications based on the quality of relevant models and data and executes the selected models using the selected data sets as inputs. Results are stored and visualized resulting data presented for the analyst. A visualization ontology enables the system to select an optimum visualization approach.
