A computer simulation can be defined as a particular way of implementing a computation so as to get numerical results about the evolution of an object. simulations is a popular theme (Hughes 1999; Winsberg 1999), the novelty of my proposal is to acknowledge that several computational models are used within one These simulations involve what is called an 'imaginary time path integral', with a statistical reinterpretation of the equations, so I call For instance, there is no simulation using the lattice model: when the computer provides numerical solutions to the Euclidean, lattice, or statistical models bring new representations and ontologies, 2.
