Abstract

In distributed simulation, overheads of coordinating operations across computing nodes could counteract the benefit of having extra machines. Meanwhile, some scientific applications such as relativistic particle transport exhibit strong data dependency among events. This paper proposed several coordination schemes to reduce communication frequency and volume, overlap computation and communication operations, and arrange event simulation speculatively. Performance gains are expected.
