Abstract

A discrete event simulation computer based on a network of microprocessors is being developed at Florida International University. This paper contains a description of the simulation models used thus far in the development process and results obtained from them. A system using a PDP-11 as the principal processor and a Motorola M68000 as an event set processor has been implemented. Results from the performance of this system are presented, and plans for further development are discussed.
