Abstract :
Simulation is an increasingly important aspect of network development, and parallelization of these simulations can result in tremendous time/performance improvements. However, tools for developing and parallelizing simulations are sadly lacking. The paper describes MVPE*, a visual programming environment for parallel simulation design
