function simulations = simul_backward_linear_model(varargin)

% Simulates a stochastic linear backward looking model.
%
% INPUTS
% - initialconditions   [double]      n*1 vector, initial conditions for the endogenous variables.
% - samplesize          [integer]     scalar, number of periods for the simulation.
% - DynareOptions       [struct]      Dynare's options_ global structure.
% - DynareModel         [struct]      Dynare's M_ global structure.
% - DynareOutput        [struct]      Dynare's oo_ global structure.
% - innovations         [double]      T*q matrix, innovations to be used for the simulation.
%
% OUTPUTS
% - DynareOutput        [struct]      Dynare's oo_ global structure.
%
% REMARKS
% [1] The innovations used for the simulation are saved in DynareOutput.exo_simul, and the resulting paths for the endogenous
%     variables are saved in DynareOutput.endo_simul.
% [2] The last input argument is not mandatory. If absent we use random draws and rescale them with the informations provided
%     through the shocks block.
% [3] If the first input argument is empty, the endogenous variables are initialized with 0, or if available with the informations
%     provided thrtough the histval block.
