With current technologies, it seems to be very difficult to implement quantum computers with many qubits. It is therefore of importance to simulate quantum algorithms and circuits on the existing computers. However, for a large-size problem, the simulation often requires more computational power than is available from sequential processing. Therefore, the simulation methods using parallel proce...

Simulation is the main tool for studying networking protocols before deploying them in a wide scale, or for understanding how they are expected to behave under various conditions. IRLSim is a new packet level network simulator that we developed in the hope to study several Internet protocols. From its modest inception as a simulator for the RSVP signaling protocol, IRLSim has evolved into a mor...

We present FATSEA, a functional and performance evaluation simulator written in C++ to handle kernels written in the CUDA programming language aimed for GPGPU computing. FATSEA takes a Parallel Thread eXecution (PTX ) code as input, which is a device independent code format generated by the Nvidia CUDA compiler, to validate results and estimate performance on Nvidia platforms. This paper shows ...

At DaimlerChrysler, the reliability and safety of automobiles are analysed using simulation. While discrete-event simulation can be used for these models, this approach may not deliver accurate results in acceptable time. Markov chain modelling for a statespace-based analysis is too complex for the user. Proxel-based simulation has shown to combine the best of both worlds and even to be more ef...

One of the methods for analyzing systems is simulation. Network simulation is a technique that models the behavior of the network by performing transaction calculations between different network entities and using mathematical formulas and taking observations from network products. A network simulator is a piece of software or hardware that predicts the behavior of a computer network without a ...
