description A program has been developed to simulate the performance of the alignment system for the ATLAS muon spectrometer. The concept of the program is simple and general, which makes its application to a specific alignment problem easy. The alignment of the different detector elements involved is reconstructed from the measurements provided by alignment sensors as the result of a chi^2 minimization performed by MINUIT. An example application implementing one octant of the muon spectrometer endcap is used to demonstrate the usefulness and reliability of the program.
