Simulimeve

Simulimeve is a term used in Albanian to refer to simulations—the imitation of the operation of a real-world system over time. A simulation uses a model, which can be mathematical, logical, or physical, to reproduce the essential behavior of the system under study while allowing experimentation in a controlled environment.

The purpose of simulimeve is to support learning, analysis, design optimization, risk assessment, and decision making. They enable testing of hypotheses, exploration of “what-if” scenarios, and forecasting outcomes without the costs, time, or risks associated with real-world trials.

Types and methods common to simulimeve include discrete-event simulation, agent-based modeling, system dynamics, and Monte Carlo simulation. Simulations can be run on general-purpose computers, specialized software, embedded devices, or through physical models and lab setups, depending on the domain and objectives.

Applications of simulimeve span a wide range of fields. In engineering and manufacturing, they help optimize processes and layouts. In healthcare, they support planning of care pathways and training. In finance, they are used for risk assessment and portfolio analysis. They also play roles in climate modeling, urban planning, transportation, and product development through virtual prototyping.

Limitations and validation are important considerations in simulimeve. The quality of results depends on the accuracy of the model, the quality of input data, and the assumptions made. Validation, calibration, and sensitivity analysis are essential to establish credibility and to understand the uncertainty surrounding outcomes.
