Provided is a simulation method performed by a process simulator, implemented with a recurrent neural network (RNN) including a plurality of process emulation cells, which are arranged in time series and configured to train and predict, based on a final target profile, a profile of each process step included in a semiconductor manufacturing process. The simulation method includes: receiving, at a first process emulation cell, a previous output profile provided at a previous process step, a target profile and process condition information of a current process step; and generating, at the first process emulation cell, a current output profile corresponding to the current process step, based on the target profile, the process condition information, and prior knowledge information, the prior knowledge information defining a time series causal relationship between the previous process step and the current process step.
