Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to present the possibilities of the simulation programs speedup using parallel processing and to compare results from an example experiments. The solution uses well-known software tools: Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) and Message Passing Interface (MPI). The comparison of these systems is presented and possibilities of distributed simulation program modular implementation are discussed as well.
