Suppressing Roughness of Virtual Times in Parallel Discrete-Event Simulations

In a parallel discrete-event simulation (PDES) scheme, tasks are distributed among processing elements (PEs) whose progress is controlled by a synchronization scheme. For lattice systems with short-range interactions, the progress of the conservative PDES scheme is governed by the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation from the theory of nonequilibrium surface growth. Although the simulated (virtual) tim...

On Critical Path Analysis of Parallel Discrete Event Simulations

Several protocols have been proposed to synchronize the logical processes (LP’s) of a parallel discrete event simulation (PDES). While most protocols have been known to perform well under certain conditions, the general observation has been that the performance of protocols is sensitive to the application being simulated, sometimes even to a particular instance of it. In this technical note, we...

Parallel Discrete Event Simulation Techniques for Scientific Simulations

ACKNOWLEDGMENT I am greatly indebted to Dr. Richard Fujimoto for his guidance and support throughout my master's study. It was under his mentoring that I developed a focus and became interested in parallel and distributed discrete event simulations. Special thanks go to Dr Kalyan Perumalla. As my co-advisor, he helped and encouraged me all along the way. I also thank Dr. Santosh Pande for his i...
