"Business" + "Model" = Business Model?!!!

Hi there
Today we're back to complete our topic (BM) .
First , I want to tell you that we can be in contact via facebook...I mean that we follow some issues there , simultaneously .we will be happy to be with you in each of these ways , or even by other contact information provided for you.
anyway , we were about to define two concepts : Business and Model.
As you know , they have a lot of definitions ;but herein we'll try to present some of them.
As Oxford English Dictionary mentions , business means :

noun
a person's regular occupation or trade. work to be done or matters to be attended to.
a person's concern.
commercial activity. a commercial organization.
informal a matter: the business of trying to find her mother.
Theatre actions other than dialogue in a play.
(the business) Brit. informal an excellent person or thing.


in business informal able to begin something.
in the business of engaged in or prepared to engage in.
like nobody's business informal extraordinarily.
send someone about their business dated tell someone to go away.


OE bisignis 'anxiety' (see busy, -ness); sense 2 dates from ME and is the root of current senses.


Here , we suppose two dimensions of the available definitions : 1.Person engaged in some commercial activities , and 2. a Firm which is doing its daily affairs .


And a Model is defined as follows :

noun
a three-dimensional representation of a person or thing, typically on a smaller scale. (in sculpture) a figure in clay or wax, to be reproduced in a more durable material.
a thing used as an example to follow. a person or thing that is an excellent example of a quality: she was a model of self-control.
a person employed to display clothes by wearing them. a person employed to pose for an artist, sculptor, etc.
a particular version of a product. a garment or a copy of a garment by a well-known designer.
a simplified description, especially a mathematical one, of a system or process, to assist calculations and predictions.
verb (models, modelling, modelled; US models, modeling, modeled)
fashion or shape (a figure) in clay, wax, etc. Art cause to appear three-dimensional.
(model something on/after) use as an example to follow or imitate.
display (clothes) by wearing them. work as a model.
devise a mathematical model of.


modeller noun
modelling noun


C16: from Fr. modelle , from Ital. modello , alt. of L. modulus (see modulus).


So a Model can be defined as a simplified description , animation or conception , especially a mathematical one, of a phenomena , to assist calculations and predictions or to pave the way to have a successful performance.

So , according to this brief descriptions of the two concepts ...what do you think about the correctness of the Title of this Post?

Please tell your ideas
We are waiting for you
