A report on Simulation

Developers of software for embedded systems or video game consoles often design their software on especially accurate emulators called simulators before trying it on the real hardware.

From those results, precise or estimated solutions are obtained, or quantitative results, from which new predictions can be made and experimentally confirmed or negated.

Similarly, in control of a system, engineers can try out different control approaches in simulations.

A simulator program is intended to execute the bits in the same way as the electronics, and allows much more freedom to debug the microprogram.

It consists of concepts used to help people know, understand, or simulate a subject the model represents.

Scientific modelling is a scientific activity, the aim of which is to make a particular part or feature of the world easier to understand, define, quantify, visualize, or simulate by referencing it to existing and usually commonly accepted knowledge.

A stochastic simulation is a simulation of a system that has variables that can change stochastically (randomly) with individual probabilities.

Dynamical simulation, in computational physics, is the simulation of systems of objects that are free to move, usually in three dimensions according to Newton's laws of dynamics, or approximations thereof.

Verification and validation of computer simulation models is conducted during the development of a simulation model with the ultimate goal of producing an accurate and credible model.

A maritime simulator or ship simulator is a system that simulates ships and maritime environments for training, research and other purposes.
