This function takes a vector of true synthesis rates and RNA half-lives, and then simulates data for multiple time points and replicates. Both synthesis rate and RNA half-lives are assumed to be constant, but the system might not be in steady-state.

Both rates can be either (i) a single number (constant rate), (ii) a data frame with names "offset", "factor" and "exponent" (for linear functions, see ComputeNonConstantParam; only one row allowed) or (iii) a unary function time->rate. Functions
