Automatically generating and executing simulation experiments promises to make running simulation studies more efficient, less error-prone, and easier to document and replicate. However, during experiment generation, background knowledge is required regarding which experiments using which inputs and outputs are useful to the modeler. Therefore, we conducted an interview study to identify what types of experiments modelers perform during simulation studies. From the interview results, we defined four general goals for simulation experiments: exploration, confirmation, answering the research question, and presentation. Based on the goals, we outline and demonstrate an approach for automatically generating experiments by utilizing an explicit and thoroughly detailed conceptual model.
