In this tutorial we present the ROme OpTimistic Simulator (ROOT-Sim), a general-purpose
Parallel Discrete Event simulation platform built according to the optimistic synchronization …

Shared-memory multi-processor/multi-core machines have become a reference for many
application contexts. In particular, the recent literature on speculative parallel discrete event …

The share-everything PDES (Parallel Discrete Event Simulation) paradigm is based on fully
sharing the possibility to process any individual event across concurrent threads, rather than …

Parallel Discrete Event Simulation (PDES) can substantially improve the performance and
capacity of simulation, allowing the study of larger, more detailed models, in less time. PDES …

The Time Warp synchronization protocol for Parallel Discrete Event Simulation (PDES) is
universally considered a viable solution to exploit the intrinsic simulation model parallelism …

We present the design and implementation of an autonomic state manager (ASM) tailored
for integration within optimistic parallel discrete event simulation (PDES) environments …

Multi-core and many-core processing chips are becoming widespread and are now being
widely integrated into Beowulf clusters. This poses a challenging problem for distributed …

Global Virtual Time (GVT) is a powerful abstraction used to discriminate what events belong
(and what do not belong) to the past history of a parallel/distributed computation. For high …

Emerging share-everything Parallel Discrete Event Simulation (PDES) platforms rely on
worker threads fully sharing the workload of events to be processed. These platforms require …

Static Binary Instrumentation is a technique that allows compile-time program manipulation.
In particular, by relying on ad-hoc tools, the end user is able to alter the program's execution …
