Virtutech® Simics is a full system simulation platform, capable of simulating high-end target systems with sufficient fidelity and speed to boot and run operating systems and commercial workloads. Simics provides a controlled, deterministic, and fully virtualized environment for a variety of hardware and software engineering tasks. Virtutech Virtutech is the world leader in simulation of high performance computer systems. We develop tools that are used to design systems such as database servers and telephone switches. Our customers include AMD, Ericsson, Hewlett-Packard and Sun Microsystems. We have research collaborations with a number of universities in Sweden and the United States. Virtutech was founded in 1998 as the first spin-off from the Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS). Our European offices are in downtown Stockholm, and our North American offices are in Campbell, CA. Virtutech Simics, our principal product, is used for developing future generation microprocessors, memory hierarchies, and system software. Our users need to run unmodified software, including operating systems, which puts high demands on performance, functionality, and stability.
