Document Summary

Simulator: a complex melding of physical devices that mimic real controls and sensors with computer software that feeds signals to those devices to make the situation seem real. A simulator is not all virtual we can use a joystick, audio inputs, keyboard strokes can be seen as a simulator. It is not only just the software that a simulator is but it is also the connection of the physical to the software to mimic the real life within a virtual world. Micro simulation a way to use web based browising to help understand different in world scenarios. **essentially computer simulations have a goal, purpose and a use: structure - observing traffic for a long period then translating observations into a set of rules that describe how vehicles behave. Model: the description of a system you wish to study. System: a collection of elements that act together to achieve some goal.
