Simulation is the imitation of some real thing, state of affairs, or process. The act of simulating
something generally entails representing certain key characteristics or behaviours of a selected
physical or abstract system.
In integrated circuit design, hardware emulation is the process of imitating the behavior of one
or more pieces of hardware (typically a system under design) with another piece of hardware,
typically a special purpose emulation system. The goal is normally debugging of the system
being designed. Often an emulator is fast enough to be plugged into a working target system in
place of a yet-to-be-built chip, so the whole system can be debugged with live data. This is a
specific case of in-circuit emulation.
