Approximate behaviors

The motivation for this paper is to contribute to a unified approach to modeling, realization, approximation and analysis for systems with a rich class of uncertainty structures. The specific focus is on what is the appropriate framework to model components with uncertainty, and what is the appropriate notion of approximation for such components. Components and systems are conceptualized in terms of their behaviors, which can be specified by parametrized equations. More questions are posed than are answered.
