15 Perf.Eval.&Benchmarking Stricker
16 Verification vs. Validation Verification of a simulator Is the simulator correct? Validation of a Simulator Is the simulator applicable? Are the assumptions reasonable? Simulators are complex pieces of software: Modularity some generic modules some domain dependent modules some model specific modules Perf.Eval.&Benchmarking Stricker
17 Example Perf.Eval.&Benchmarking Stricker
18 Example Perf.Eval.&Benchmarking Stricker
