摘要
Sequential simulation of large complex physical systems is often regarded as a computationally expensive task.In order to speed-up complex discrete-event simulations,the paradigm of Parallel and Distributed Discrete Event Simulation (PDES) has been introduced since the late 70s.In this paper we'll analyze the applicability of PDES to the modeling and analysis of large computer system;such systems are increasingly common in the area of High Energy and Nuclear Physics,because many modern experiments make use of large"compute farms",Some feasibility tests have been performed on a prototype distributed siumulator.
