The terms model and modelling are used so intensively in many disciplines that it is hard to narrow down their actual meanings. Even in Software Engineering the understanding of these terms depend very much on the context. We believe that this contributes to the discrepancy of the modelling approaches. In this article we point out some of the problems resulting from this and the importance of having a more proper definition along with set of instruments for it. We look at more general definitions of model from outside the bounds of Software Engineering. We go through the modelling of various by-products of software engineering processes. Finally we present our vision about how a common foundation can be used for our benefit.
