Simulation
From Learning and training wiki
 SIMULATION |
| A methodology for understanding the interrelationships among components of a system or process through the imitation of the reality as a means of preparing a decision. Simulation creates the appearance of being real, giving the experience of a real situation without risks. They test or use a model that depicts or mirrors some aspect of reality in form, if not necessarily in content. The act of simulating something generally entails representing certain key characteristics of a selected physical or abstract system. The learning occurs by studying the effects of change on one or more factors of the model. The aim of a simulation is to conduct experiments for the purpose of understanding and evaluating various strategies.[1] |
