brute force simulation
[broot fors ˌsɪmjəˈleɪʃən]
nounpl: brute force simulations
simulação por força bruta
1. A computational method that solves a problem by exhaustively trying all possible solutions without optimization or shortcuts
The engineer used brute force simulation to test every possible configuration of the mechanical system.
O engenheiro usou simulação por força bruta para testar todas as configurações possíveis do sistema mecânico.
2. A simulation technique that relies on raw computing power and repeated iterations rather than algorithmic optimization
Brute force simulation is computationally expensive but guarantees finding all potential outcomes.
A simulação por força bruta é computacionalmente cara, mas garante encontrar todos os resultados potenciais.
3. In computer science, testing a system by running simulations across all possible input combinations without filtering or pruning
They performed a brute force simulation of the network to identify all vulnerabilities.
Eles realizaram uma simulação por força bruta da rede para identificar todas as vulnerabilidades.
This is primarily a technical term used in computing, engineering, and scientific research communities in both Brazil and the USA. It emphasizes computational power over algorithmic elegance. In Brazilian tech companies, especially in São Paulo's startup scene, this term is frequently used when discussing performance testing and system validation. The phrase reflects a pragmatic approach: when in doubt, compute everything.
