The goal of the AGATA project is to develop an array of highly segmented high-purity germanium detectors based on the novel concepts of pulse shape analysis and {gamma}-ray tracking. In the initial phase, a smaller Demonstrator Array will be assembled to prove the practical feasibility of these concepts. The Demonstrator Array will be first placed at the Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro, where it will be coupled with the PRISMA magnetic spectrometer. Some results of the extensive simulation work concerning the Demonstrator Array are presented here.
