Simulation

Project development typically begins in a simulation environment while

hardware engineers are developing the new hardware (cell phone, com-

puter, and so on). Simulation mimics system memory and I/O, which

enables portions of the target system hardware to be viewed. A simulator is

software that mimics the behavior of a DSP chip. Running VisualDSP++

with a simulation target without a physical processor enables you to build,

edit, and debug your DSP program before a DSP chip is manufactured.
