2 Plan of the talk Why simulations?! Dynamic ranges of simulations! Basic flowchart for simulation! Various techniques! Numerical, Semi-numerical, 1D radiative transfer (Raghunath Ghara s talk), Comparison! Applications! (i) RSD,! (ii) Light Cone effect! (iii) QSO HII regions (follow Suman Majumdar s talk)! Effect of X-sources, and Ly-alpha photons (Raghunath Ghara s talk)! Future outlook
3 Why Simulations? Understanding the HI 21-cm signal! Effect of sources, feedbacks, recombinations! Effect of different line of sight effects such as RSD, LC, AP! Crucial for array design, develop detection strategies! Information extraction
4 Simulation sizes and Dynamic range Simulation of ~Gpc size (for 5 degree FoV experiment)!!!!! Need to resolve 10^8 solar mass DM halos (sub Mpc scale) which produce photons!! This requires huge dynamic range and extremely high computational cost.

36 Summary Simulations are import in order to understand HI 21-cm signal, study various effects, design detection strategies, extract information. Challenge is to simulate large scale (~Gpc) simulations which have less computational requirements but accurate enough. These should be used explore large parameter space. Semi numerical techniques are economic and produce reasonably good results Light cone effect and the peculiar velocity effects change the power spectrum significantly and should be considered while modeling the power spectrum.
