What is this system simulation and modeling?

    It's when you write software that mathematically determines the results of a physical system. When you play a video game, you press the "jump" button, and the game draws pictures on the screen that look like your onscreen avatar jumped. But there was no actual jumping - it was all just faked behind the scenes with math.

    "The Golden Town is the Golden Town no longer. They have sold their pillars for brass and their temples for money, they have made coins out of their golden doors. It is become a dark town full of trouble, there is no ease in its streets, beauty has left it and the old songs are gone." - Lord Dunsany, The Messengers
