WHAT IS SIMULATION? Computer simulation is the discipline of designing a model of an actual or theoretical physical system, executing the model on a digital computer, and analyzing the execution output.
Efficacy is defined as the maximum effect a drug can produce, regardless of the dose. Potency is related to the amount of drug needed to produce a given effect; it is often quantified by the ED50 or EC50, which are respectively the drug dose or concentration that causes 50% of the maximum effect. Affinity is defined as a drug's ability to bind to a receptor.
Potency and effectiveness are not the same thing - potency relates to how small or large a dose is required to get the maximal effect - but that only means to the max for that drug. Not all drugs will have a 100% maximal effect. The benzo's are different in maximal effect possable and different in potency. The easiest way to compare is potency. When you compare potency you compare the size of the dose required to attain the effect.
