Thanks for your comments and corrections!
I have corrected LLVM, PPC, PPE and LLE, also added PPSS.
I am sorry to argue but I think that simulation actually is the correct word in this case. Simulation means that you want to make something to behave the same way (as a legacy system did for example) without making the inner functionality exactly the same. Here is a good discussion about the topic with some examples also: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21746...simulation
Anyway, I think you all get my point in the HLE explanation, and maybe there isn't just one correct answer!

Simulation means you don't have the underlying system but rather you have a model that evaluates the outcome based on certain parameters in order to make predictions and adjustments. Maybe an example can be given that high level emulation is emulating firmware functions or the API that a game uses.
