Abstract

Parallel discrete event simulation (PDES) is a basic approach for evaluation of complex systems. A PDES attempts to speed up the execution of a simulation by distributing the simulation's workload between multiple processors. A network of workstations is a widely available platform for PDES. The present article provides a comparative analysis of operational distributed simulation models based on the Time Warp algorithm. An operational model allowing for reduction of the simulation costs has been proposed based on an experimental evaluation.
