    Many popular theoretical models of parallel computers suffer the drawback of being highly impractical. The aim of this paper is to examine simulations of two impractical parallel machine models (shared memory machines and networks of sequential processors) by two more practical models (uniform circuits and feasible networks). We give a single basic simulation theorem which epitomizes a number of related results in this area.
