MIMIC is a further development from MIDAS (Modified '''I'''ntegration '''D'''igital '''A'''nalog '''S'''imulator), which represented Analog Computer design. Written completely in FORTRAN but one routine in COMPASS , and ran on Control Data Supercomputer s, MIMIC is capable of solving much larger simulation models. With MIMIC, Ordinary Differential Equation s describing mathematical Model s in several scientific disciplines as in engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, economics and as well as in social sciences can easily be solved by Numerical Integration and the results of the analysis are listed or drawn in diagrams. It enables also the analysis of Nonlinear Dynamic Condition s. MIMIC software package, written as FORTRAN overlay programs, executes input statements of the mathematical model in six consecutive passes. Simulation programs written in MIMIC are compiled rather than interpreted. Core of the simulation package is a variable step numerical integrator of fourth-order Runge-Kutta Method . Many useful functions leaning on electrical circuit elements exist beside some mathematical functions found in most scientific programming languages. There is no need to sort the statements in order of dependencies of the variables, since MIMIC does it internally. Parts of the software organized in overlays are:
