Step 7
Now we are going to proceed to simulate the project.
Click on Calculate -> Execute and choose the number of processors to use for the simulation. Then click on the Execute button and wait until it ends.
Step 8
Now you can see the results of the simulation by doing click on Show Results -> RCS -> View Cuts.
