Parallel Discrete Event Simulation Using Shared Memory

Absrract-With traditional event list techniques, evaluating a detailed discrete event simulation model can often require hours or even days of computation time. By eliminating the event list and maintaining only sufficient synchronization to ensure causality, parallel simulation can potentially provide speedups that are linear in the number of processors. We present a set of shared memory exper...

Optimization of Operations Resources via Discrete Event Simulation Modeling

The resource levels required for operation and support of reusable launch vehicles are typically defined through discrete event simulation modeling. Minimizing these resources constitutes an optimization problem involving discrete variables and simulation. Conventional approaches to solve such optimization problems involving integer valued decision variables are the pattern search and statistic...
