Simulation crashed - Killed by user

This simulation suddenly crashed and there was a line saying that "Killed by user". 
I didn't kill it myself. Does this mean that someone actively killed it?

    Maybe you have CPU time limits in your environment? If you're using a queuing system (like LSF) you might need to check the queue setups - if simulating directly, see what the "limit cputime" command says (if using csh), or "ulimit -t" says if using bash/ksh.
