XNsim Distributed Simulation via an Extensible Network

摘要

In this paper, a dynamically scalable distributed simulation framework called extensible Network Simulation (XNsim) is presented. With this approach, a complete simulation can be assembled from shared component subsystems written in different formats, which run on different computing platforms, with different sampling rates, in different geographic locations, and over single/multiple networks. The software uses a peer-to-peer communication architecture. An example is presented to illustrate its features and capabilities Further information about XNsim is available at the product homepage.
