Please define "simulate", "standard" in context

[edit]
a standard quantum computer can be programmed to simulate any local quantum system efficiently

What do these terms mean? Are they plain language or scientific jargon? --beefyt (talk) 18:01, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Simulate is what it means. Like simulating a video game system with an emulator, or how the machines in the Matrix simulate reality for your brain to plug into. It isn't scientific jargon.
