We review different aspects of the simulation of spiking neural networks. We start by
reviewing the different types of simulation strategies and algorithms that are currently …

Cloud manufacturing (CMfg) is an extension of cloud computing in the manufacturing sector.
The CMfg concept of simulating a factory online by using Web services is a topic of interest …

Despite industrial investment in both on-die GPUs and next generation interconnects, the
highest performing parallel accelerators shipping today continue to be discrete GPUs …

We present Swarm, a novel architecture that exploits ordered irregular parallelism, which is
abundant but hard to mine with current software and hardware techniques. In this …

The behavior of many technical systems that are increasingly important in our every-day life
can be described by discrete states and state-changing events. Discrete event systems …

Agent based systems are increasingly being applied in a wide range of areas including
telecommunications, business process modeling, computer games, control of mobile robots …

This paper describes a new, auto-adaptive algorithm for dead reckoning in DIS. In general
dead-reckoning algorithms use a fixed threshold to control the extrapolation errors. Since a …

Very large networks of spiking neurons can be simulated efficiently in parallel under the
constraint that spike times are bound to an equidistant time grid. Within this scheme, the …

There is a rapid increase in the size of data centres (DCs) used to provide cloud computing
services. It is commonly agreed that not all properties in the middleware that manages DCs …

Modern manufacturing systems pose a diversity of problems all along their life cycle which
are often treated with particular independent formalisms and techniques. Petri nets are a …
