emulation [‚em·yə′lā·shən]
(computer science)
Imitation of one computer system by another so that the latter functions in exactly the same way and runs the same programs.

(architecture)emulation - When one system performs in exactly the same way as another, though perhaps not at the same speed. A typical example would be emulation of one computer by (a program running on) another. You might use an emulation as a replacement for a system whereas you would use a simulation if you just wanted to analyse it and make predictions about it.
