(IEEE) A device, computer program, or system that behaves or operates like a given system when provided a set of controlled inputs. Contrast with emulator. A simulator provides inputs or responses that resemble anticipated process parameters. Its function is to present data to the system at known speeds and in a proper format.

Menu for running the simulation.

is a simulated nuclear power reactor control room with gauges, instruments and controls connected to a computer. The computer is programmed to behave like a nuclear reactor and respond to operator actions and commands. The simulator is used in training nuclear operators in controlling the reactor and responding to simulated transients and accidents.

a completely host based program that simulates the functionality and the instruction set of the target processor

A machine which closely resembles a linear accelerator which allows the necessary calculations to be made before starting treatment.

Specialised X-ray machine used to plan radiotherapy treatment.

Apparatus resembling a linear accelerator which allows rehearsal of the treatment position and allows the calculation of the radiation treatment prior to its commencement on a linear accelerator.

an advanced type of model that generally takes the form of some set of equations or materials designed to mimic the behavior and structure of the environment or thing it represents

This is a small computer linked up to the bells, usually by means of optics. It will sound the bell it is linked to, and it can 'put in' the other bells. A simulator is very useful for training purposes.

A ground-based device used to train pilots which simulates flight scenarios, including emergency situations.

A device that creates an environment that is as close as possible to reality. In flight simulators, engineers create a cockpit environment identical to the one in a real airplane. In a flight simulator a pilot will see, hear and feel like he or she is in a real aircraft.

a machine that simulates an environment for the purpose of training or research

The Simulator is a software program included in Code Warrior that runs on your PC and simulates what the HCS12 does. You can run and debug a program in the simulator environment without ever connecting to an HCS12 system.

a development and debugging tool used in development and testing

a different tool entirely

a general tool in support of WOZ

() a device that allows someone to reproduce under test conditions the phenomena likely to occur in actual performance

a device that allows a user or users to practice, test, or evaluate "real-world" procedures in a simulated environment

a device that may use any combination of sound, sight, motion and smell to make you feel that you are experiencing an actual situation

a term used to describe a WAP device implemented in software, and as such is not a physical device, like a mobile phone for example

a computer programme that creates the model of existing external conditions and generates output

an interactive physical model

a representative model that does not necessarily operate the same way internally as the real device

A computer-based system used for designing and testing one or more aspects of ASIC models.

The piece of equipment on which simulation is accomplished.

a much more forgiving piece of equipment than an airplane

a mechanical devise employing multiple actuators which can simulate various forms of motion, such as airplanes, cars or dinosaurs. SimEx's simulators are state-of-the-art electric simulators with 4 or 6 axes.
