<p>Simulation is an engineering method used to predict a system’s performance and to assess working methods, layouts, risk identification, and training needs.</p>
<p>Powerful and effort intensive way to assess workload, predict system performance, evaluate alternatives, evaluate layout and procedures, identify training needs, and identify potential risks. Economical method for large scale systems.</p>

<h3>Types</h3>
<p>pen and paper system (e.g. mock-up),</p>
<p>prototypes (mockups in 3D)</p>
<p>PC-based system</p>
<p>part-task simulation (where a specific aspect of the task is investigated)</p>
<p>full-task simulation (simulating the entire operational task environment).</p>
