emulation
Definition
Ability of a 'reverse engineered' software to 'mimic' a similar software. For example, some less popular (and usually less expensive) computer printers are designed to work with the standard device driver software used by the more popular or market leading printer. This facility allows the economy-minded buyers to switch to the cheaper alternatives without the hassle of installing unknown or non-standard drivers. See also reverse engineering.
