The Discrete Event Simulation Computer (DESC) reported here improves simulation performance through an exploitation of parallelism inherent in simulation, with regard to list processing, random number generation, statistical analysis and program control. We have chosen SIMULA as the frame language concept. For performance evaluation a 9 stage queueing network model has been used as benchmark model. During the run time of the simulation program of this model the performance of the DESC was measured via a hardware/software monitor. With these data a queueing model of the DESC was designed, which has been implemented as a simulation program on the DESC. Changing parameters and adding several more processors to the simulation model of the DESC gave us an accurate picture of the DESC's performance under different conditions.
