kaz,

simulation and modeling is an another issue for me.

"You can also produce another hardware platform to directly model your hardware and this is emulation without using software."

Is that mean FPGA(or any programmable logic)? can you give some example.

"If you are modelling software itself with another software then this can be viewed as emulation as well."

What do you mean by modeling software itself?

Thanks
