Note
The agreement ending that he, she, it or any singular noun subject calls for: the program simulates, she simulates. It belongs only to the verb, the sense of modeling or replicating how something behaves or looks. Simulate once also served as an adjective meaning "feigned," but that use is obsolete, and adjectives never take this ending, so simulates is always the verb.
