Abstract

This paper describes three methods that were used to investigate multiprocessor bus architectures. The models described were implemented in FORTRAN, GPSS, and SIMULA. Characteristics of the three implementations, such as program length, program memory requirements, execution time and ease of use are compared. Results of the simulation of a single bus system are presented to show how the various parameters affect system performance.
