==Background==
Computer [[simulation]]s are constructed to emulate a physical system. Because these are meant to replicate some aspect of a system in detail, they often do not yield an analytic solution. Therefore, methods such as [[discrete event simulation]] or [[finite element]] solvers are used. A [[computer model]] is used to make inferences about the system it replicates. For example, [[climate models]] are often used because experimentation on an earth sized object is impossible.
