A simulation apparatus, including a first simulator assigning an operating
cycle number, a second simulator assigning an operating cycle number, and
a control portion for synchronously controlling the first simulator and
the second simulator, the control portion causing communication between
the first simulator and the second simulator so as to control
control-information and synchronous-information of the first simulator
and the second simulator, the control-information controlling operations
of the first simulator and the second simulator, wherein the control
portion sets up the operating cycle numbers of the first simulator and
the second simulator at a first cycle value when a synchronous condition
of the synchronous-information is established, the control portion sets
up at least one of the operating cycle numbers of the first simulator and
the second simulator at a second cycle value being larger than the first
cycle value when the synchronous condition of the synchronous-information
is not established.
