Mr Curtice has run a simulation of a future election under the Jenkins proposals.
The driving simulation has sold over 60 million copies worldwide since it launched on the original PlayStation in 1998.
FORBES: Sony Racing Simulation Gran Turismo Blurs Line Between Virtual And Reality
But the simulation has not yet found the reason why it did so.
Simulation has been great, but it is no substitute for hands on work, whether addressing urgent needs with the W-76 or B-61 weapons or proceeding with the RRW, none of which is possible without additional budgetary resources and scientists who can finally get their hands on these kinds of programs.
DeGrado, with the help of a powerful supercomputer simulation, has created new antibiotics that mimic natural ones but are far simpler to produce and more stable.
Simulation also has its uses on the battlefields of commerce.
Instead of rehashing what has already happened in a simulation-type game, "Assassin's Creed III" aims for the gray areas of history and focuses on events that may not have a clear-cut explanation.
Dating back to Super Bowl XXXVIII, EA SPORTS has conducted the annual Super Bowl simulation using the latest iteration of the Madden NFL franchise.
The centre has also developed a conflict-simulation game that shows the effect of different tactics strikes, demos, boycotts, etc which can be tailored to particular circumstances.
To find out which team, the American League or National League, will come out on top, Sony Computer Entertainment America has tapped into its own gaming simulation with MLB 12 The Show.
Originally developed as a technique to measure brain activity in NASA pilots during flight simulation exercises, neurofeedback has shown promising initial results for helping retrain the brainwaves of children with ADHD and autism and people suffering from chronic migraines.
Feel has a specialized user interface and touch simulation to enable deep communication.
ENGADGET: Provoke's 2012 concepts head to New York, Nokia hopes nobody notices
However, because of a late admission by the defence that Dr White would be using a new computer simulation to illustrate his theory, Judge Michael Pastor has given prosecutors the weekend to analyse the data before cross-examining the defence's expert.
The company has built an efficient operation that is based on selling nicely functional simulation tools through a balanced sales channel of direct and VAR partners.
Now a new computer simulation confirms what some long suspected: The H5N1 virus already has spread from human to human--or at least it did in one case cluster last year in Indonesia.
Science editor Alan Boyle's blog: A simulation based on data from NASA's planet-hunting Kepler mission has determined that about one out of every six stars has an Earth-sized planet, which would translate to at least 17 billion such worlds in our Milky Way galaxy.
Since 1992, in the place of testing, the United States has relied for "stockpile stewardship" on a host of computer-modeling, other simulation techniques and non-nuclear explosive tests that have provided insights into the performance of an aging arsenal.
By throwing more computing horsepower at the problem than ever before and comparing the simulation results with experimental observations of real protein behaviour, it should be possible to find out why it has failed in the past.
Dr Bilham and Vinod Gaur, from the Centre for Mathematical Modelling and Computer Simulation in Bangalore, writing late last year in Current Science, said that until recently Indian seismological research has neglected a technique known as geodesy, which measures the strains accumulating in, and distorting the surfaces of, plates.
