Abstract

The IDES project at Sandia National Laboratories is developing a large scale portable parallel simulator for use in stockpile stewardship. IDES will use the Breathing-Time-Buckets synchronization protocol; to support IDES development, this paper studies a performance model and describes performance experiments on expected work load and architectural parameters. A new parallel algorithm for terminating the window quickly is also described and analyzed.
