  2. Simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation

    A simulation is an imitative representation of a process or system that could exist in the real world. [1] [2] [3] In this broad sense, simulation can often be used interchangeably with model. [2] Sometimes a clear distinction between the two terms is made, in which simulations require the use of models; the model represents the key ...

  3. Computer simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_simulation

    Computer simulation is the process of mathematical modelling, performed on a computer, which is designed to predict the behaviour of, or the outcome of, a real-world or physical system. The reliability of some mathematical models can be determined by comparing their results to the real-world outcomes they aim to predict.

  4. Artificial intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence

    Artificial intelligence was founded as an academic discipline in 1956. [6] The field went through multiple cycles of optimism, [7] [8] followed by periods of disappointment and loss of funding, known as AI winter. [9] [10] Funding and interest vastly increased after 2012 when deep learning surpassed all previous AI techniques, [11] and after ...

  5. Simulation modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_modeling

    Simulation modeling. Simulation modeling is the process of creating and analyzing a digital prototype of a physical model to predict its performance in the real world. Simulation modeling is used to help designers and engineers understand whether, under what conditions, and in which ways a part could fail and what loads it can withstand.

  6. Real Time Digital Simulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Time_Digital_Simulator

    The RTS is a fully digital electromagnetic transient power system simulator that operates in real time. HYPERSIM is one of the commercial RTS available, it has been developed by Hydro-Québec and eMEGAsim has been developed by OPAL-RT Technologies Inc. which was born within Hydro-Québec. HYPERSIM is now available from OPAL-RT Technologies.

  7. Modeling and simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modeling_and_simulation

    Modeling and simulation ( M&S) is the use of models (e.g., physical, mathematical, behavioral, or logical representation of a system, entity, phenomenon, or process) as a basis for simulations to develop data utilized for managerial or technical decision making. [1] [2]

  8. Simulation hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis

    The simulation hypothesis proposes that what humans experience as the world is actually a simulated reality, such as a computer simulation in which humans themselves are constructs. [1] [2] There has been much debate over this topic, ranging from philosophical discourse to practical applications in computing .

  9. Simulation video game - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_video_game

    Simulation video games are a diverse super-category of video games, generally designed to closely simulate real world activities. [1] A simulation game attempts to copy various activities from real life in the form of a game for various purposes such as training, analysis, prediction, or entertainment. Usually there are no strictly defined ...
