Abstract
In this paper we study the notion of stepwise simulation between Abstract State Machines, to explore if some natural change on the original definition would keep it sound. We prove that we have to keep the classical notion and give results about the computability of the simulation itself.

Given an ASM, the well definition of an ASM is undecidable. However, one could add some rules to detect incoherence at runtime and behave accordingly.
