Developments in simulation systems, eg new simulators, partitioning algorithms, modeling
formalisms, or specialized user interfaces, often implies the realization of entire simulation …

Historically, scientific computing efforts have demonstrated the clear need for, and effective
use of, supercomputing with traditional time-stepped simulations. Nevertheless, there are …

I submitted this thesis to the Faculty of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering of the
University of Rostock in August 2010, after working on this topic for more than four years. 1 …

Multi-agent systems (MAS) are often extremely complex and it can be difficult to formally
verify their properties. As a result, design and implementation remains largely experimental …

Parallel discrete-event simulation (PDES) is an important tool in the codesign of extreme-
scale systems because PDES provides a cost-effective way to evaluate designs of high …

Distributed simulation can speed up the execution of models significantly. We introduce a
new simulation algorithm and present partitioning and load balancing techniques that are …

The event queue problem is one of the oldest problems in the field of discrete event
simulation. However, processing models developed in the PDEVS formalism requires …

Next-generation high-performance computing will require more scalable and flexible
performance prediction tools to evaluate software--hardware co-design choices relevant to …

Predicting the time-performance of a Distributed Simulation (DS) system may be of interest
to evaluate system alternatives during the development cycle, before the system is …

Modelle als Abbild realer Systeme sind ein wichtiges Instrument zur Entscheidungsfindung
bei komplexen Sachverhalten. Aus komplexen Problemstellungen ergeben sich wiederum …
