Parallel independent replicated simulation on a network of workstations
Lin Y. (ed) ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 24(1): 73-80, 1994. Type: Article
Parallel simulation refers to the execution of a single simulation on multiple cooperating processors. In this setting, speedup is measured relative to the execution time of the same simulation on a single processor. Lin adopts a more ...

Parallel discrete event simulation: a modeling methodological perspective
Page E., Nance R. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 24(1): 88-93, 1994. Type: Article
The future suitability of simulation as a viable tool to analyze large, complex, and elaborate systems relies on the concurrent execution of the simulation program in parallel or distributed multiprocessing environments. In the last 15...

A unified framework for conservative and optimistic distributed simulation
Jha V., Bagrodia R. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 24(1): 12-19, 1994. Type: Article
Parallel and distributed discrete-event simulation has been a fruitful field of research over the last 15 years, mainly focusing on developing protocols to synchronize simulation processes so that the results are logically correct&...

Cooperative acceleration
Blanchard T., Lake T., Turner S. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 24(1): 58-64, 1994. Type: Article
Conservative protocols for distributed discrete event simulation are strongly dependent on the ability to identify good lookaheads, that is, intervals in simulation time during which it can be guaranteed that no event-carrying message ...

Understanding supercritical speedup
Gunter M. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 24(1): 81-87, 1994. Type: Article
The author characterizes the speedup of parallel discrete event simulation (PDES) programs relative to their concomitant critical path estimations. The ability of a parallel implementation to outperform the critical path is related to ...

Stability of event synchronisation in distributed discrete event simulation
Kumar A., Shorey R. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 24(1): 65-72, 1994. Type: Article
Distributed synchronization protocols ensure the temporal consistency of logical processes in a simulation. Conservative protocols insist that messages be processed in strict message arrival order. Kumar and Shorey prove that the messa...

pGVT: an algorithm for accurate GVT estimation
D’Souza L., Fan X., Wilsey P. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 24(1): 102-109, 1994. Type: Article
A global virtual time (GVT) estimation algorithm, called pGVT, is designed for time warp systems that operate in an environment where reliable and first in, first out message delivery is not guaranteed. As a result, pGVT relies on mess...

Discrete-event simulation and the event horizon
Steinman J. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 24(1): 39-49, 1994. Type: Article
The concept of an event horizon originated in cosmology. It describes the boundary of the region in space-time from which neither matter nor energy can escape. This concept has been adapted to discrete-event simulation in order to acce...

Efficient distributed simulation
Madisetti V. (ed), Walrand J. (ed), Messerschmitt D. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 20(1): 5-21, 1989. Type: Article
The authors inform us that a simulation distributed over several processors will perform differently depending on the way in which its parts are mapped onto the processors. They state further that efficiency can be gained if the loads ...

An algorithm for parallel discrete event simulation using common memory
Cota B., Sargent R. ACM SIGSIM Simulation Digest 20(1): 23-31, 1989. Type: Article
Many distributed and parallel discrete-event simulation algorithms assume that processes only communicate through message passing. Cota and Sargent, in contrast, assume the existence of shared memory, permitting one process to cheaply ...
