model for emulation. --Thomas
Bulfinch
(Mythology)
[PJC]
4. (Computers) the imitation of the actions of a computer
system or component, especially a processor, by means of a

and performance characteristics of that system without

Syn: Competition; rivalry; contest; contention; strife. --
Emulation, Competition, Rivalry. Competition is
the struggle of two or more persons for the same object.
Emulation is an ardent desire for superiority, arising
from competition, but now implying, of necessity, any
improper feeling. Rivalry is a personal contest, and,
almost of course, has a selfish object and gives rise to
envy. "Competition and emulation have honor for their
basis; rivalry is but a desire for selfish
gratification. Competition and emulation animate to
effort; rivalry usually produces hatred. Competition and
emulation seek to merit success; rivalry is contented
with obtaining it." --Crabb.

(wn) | emulation
n 1: ambition to equal or excel
2: (computer science) technique of one machine obtaining the

3: effort to equal or surpass another |
emulation
(foldoc) | 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.
