Abstract :
There are very few areas which have had as steady a progress of utilization as the entire domain of simulation. It is a vast field that has been applied in many domains. Manufacturing, is the area of its maximum penetration. This paper describes different kinds of simulations, application domains, benefits and state of the art issues concerning the simulation activities
