software program


Explanation:
Surely this is just the software program itself, i.e. a thermal simulation program?

I found this distinction which may help:

Zum inneren Aufbau der Maschine sind drei Teile nötig:

Rechenwerk,
Speicherwerk,
Programmwerk.

Das Rechenwerk führt die Operationen durch; das Speicherwerk nimmt die Zahlen auf - bisher mußte der Mensch diese aufschreiben, um sie wieder verwenden zu können -, und das Programmwerk gibt seine Befehle sowohl an das Rechenwerk als auch an das Speicherwerk, regelt also den Zahlenverkehr zwischen diesen beiden Teilen.
