"The CCRU was into running simulations," Goodman recalls.
Dr. Lorenz was running simulations of weather using a simple computer model.
In fact, the ministry had done precisely that, running simulations on Speedi's computers of radiation releases.
The forecast works by running simulations of the Electoral College, which are designed to consider the uncertainty in the outcome at the national level and in individual states.
Thanks to its two Cray supercomputers running simulations that combine quantum physics, chemistry and biological models, BioNumerik has been able to get three compounds into clinical trials.
After the nominating convention, the D.N.C. commissioned Simulmatics to prepare three more reports, including one that involved running simulations about different ways in which Kennedy might discuss his Catholicism.
For example, he complained in an e-mail message two days before the accident that NASA seemed to be dragging its feet on running simulations of how a shuttle would land with two tires blown out.
Brown told me that one of the most gratifying aspects of the project was his interchange with Batygin — wandering into each other's offices, writing equations, drawing pictures, running simulations, pressing to bridge the gap between theory and observation.
In his new book, "Uncontrolled," Manzi notes that many experts tackle policy problems by creating big pattern-finding models and then running simulations to see how proposals will work.
Well, as "in action" as you can get since the units were probably running simulations.
Quantitative predictions for complex scientific theories are often obtained by running simulations on computational models.
