Large-scale ecological simulations are natural candidates for distributed discrete event simulation. In optimistic simulation of spatially explicit models, a difficult problem ar...
An important question for network simulation is what level of detail is required to obtain a desired level of accuracy. While in some networks, the level of detail is an open rese...

In this paper we study message flow processes in distributed simulators of open queueing networks. We develop and study queueing models for distributed simulators with maximum loo...

In mobile ad hoc network (MANET) studies, it is imperative to use highly detailed device models as they provide high layer protocols with good prediction of underlying wireless co...

We investigated the benefit of exploiting the symmetries of graphs for partitioning. We represent the model to be simulated by a weighted graph. Graph symmetries are studied in th...

The use of software diversity has often been discussed in the research literature as an effective means to break up the software monoculture present on the Internet and to thus p...
This year’s installment of the PADS “community assessment” looks at previous assessments and considers some current directions in distributed simulation and their possible r...
Packet-level discrete-event network simulators use an event to model the movement of each packet in the network. This results in accurate models, but requires that many events are...
