During the course of information technology being integrated into industrialization in the world, the simulation science and technology, as an emerging field of research, has established itself as an independent research discipline, that is, with stable research objects, a relatively independent theoretical system and a contingent of scientists and engineers for specific applications and the divers demands of the society. The theoretical system of simulation science and technology is summarized in this paper, which can be divided into fundamental theory, specialized theory and application theory, including similarity theory, simulation methodology, modeling theory, simulation system theory, simulation credibility theory and simulation application theory. Their present status and functions are discussed.
