A virtual world?
The more complex the data base the more accurate one's simulation is achieved. The point is though that you have to capture scientific processes through calorimeter examinations just as you do in the LHC.
So these backdrops are processes in identifying particle examinations as they approach earth or are produced on earth. See Fermi and capture of thunder storms and one might of asked how Fermi's picture taking would have looked had they pointed it toward the
Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster?
So the idea here is how you map particulates as a measure of natural processes? The virtual world lacks the depth of measure with which correlation can exist in the natural world? Why? Because it asks the designers of computation and memory to directly map the results of the experiments. So who designs the experiments to meet the data?
How did they know the energy range that the Higg's Boson would be detected in?
The Bolshoi simulation is the most accurate cosmological simulation of the evolution of the large-scale structure of the universe yet made ("bolshoi" is the Russian word for "great" or "grand"). The first two of a series of research papers describing Bolshoi and its implications have been accepted for publication in the Astrophysical Journal. The first data release of Bolshoi outputs, including output from Bolshoi and also the BigBolshoi or MultiDark simulation of a volume 64 times bigger than Bolshoi, has just been made publicly available to the world's astronomers and astrophysicists.
The starting point for Bolshoi was the best ground- and space-based observations, including NASA's long-running and highly successful WMAP Explorer mission that has been mapping the light of the Big Bang in the entire sky. One of the world's fastest supercomputers then calculated the evolution of a typical region of the universe a billion light years across.
The Bolshoi simulation took 6 million cpu hours to run on the Pleiades supercomputer—recently ranked as seventh fastest of the world's top 500 supercomputers—at NASA Ames Research Center.

THREE “BOLSHOI” SUPERCOMPUTER SIMULATIONS OF THE EVOLUTION OF THE UNIVERSE ANNOUNCED BY AUTHORS FROM UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, NEW MEXICO STATE UNIVERSITY

MOFFETT FIELD, Calif. – Scientists have generated the largest and most
realistic cosmological simulations of the evolving universe to-date,
thanks to NASA’s powerful Pleiades supercomputer. Using the "Bolshoi"
simulation code, researchers hope to explain how galaxies and other very
large structures in the universe changed since the Big Bang.
To
complete the enormous Bolshoi simulation, which traces how largest
galaxies and galaxy structures in the universe were formed billions of
years ago, astrophysicists at New Mexico State University Las Cruces,
New Mexico and the University of California High-Performance
Astrocomputing Center (UC-HIPACC), Santa Cruz, Calif. ran their code on
Pleiades for 18 days, consumed millions of hours of computer time, and
generating enormous amounts of data. Pleiades is the seventh most
powerful supercomputer in the world.
“NASA installs systems like
Pleiades, that are able to run single jobs that span tens of thousands
of processors, to facilitate scientific discovery,” said William
Thigpen, systems and engineering branch chief in the NASA Advanced
Supercomputing (NAS) Division at NASA's Ames Research Center. See|:
