In this paper we propose a model to predict the performance of synchronous discrete event simulation. The model considers parameters including the number of active objects per cyc...
We have developed a set of performance prediction tools which help to estimate the achievable speedups from parallelizing a sequential simulation. The tools focus on two important...
High performance computers currently under construction, such as IBM’s Blue Gene/L, consisting of large numbers (64K) of low cost processing elements with relatively small local...

This paper considers a technique for composing global (barrier-style) and local (channel scanning) synchronization protocols within a single parallel discrete-event simulation. Com...
