4.2. Static Versus Dynamic Simulation Static simulation models capture the variation of model parameters atone single point in time, while dynamic simulation models capture the behaviour of model parameters over a specified period of time. Static simulation in software engineering is often used as a reference to stochastic Monte Carlo simulation which does not investigate behaviour overtime. Related examples can be found in (Briand and Pfahl, 2000; Houston, 2003; McCabe, 2003).
