Abstract :
This tutorial gives an introduction to parallel and distributed simulation systems. Issues concerning the execution of discrete-event simulations on parallel and distributed computers either to reduce model execution time or to create geographically distributed virtual environments are covered. The emphasis of this tutorial is on the algorithms and techniques that are used in the underlying simulation executive to execute simulations on parallel and distributed computing platforms
