We present a framework for the interactive simulation of fluids coupled with rigid bodies that targets heterogeneous distributed computing architectures. Specifically, our proposed approach is well-suited for computer graphics applications that combine ...

Discrete event simulation (DES) is a method for digitally replicating the behavior and performance of real-world processes, systems, and facilities. DES is widely applied in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and military domains. In some cases, DES ...

We introduce Loki, a new framework for robust simulation of fluid, rigid, and deformable objects with non-compromising fidelity on any single element, and capabilities for coupling and representation transitions across multiple elements. Loki adapts ...

The Generalized Discrete Event System specification (G-DEVS) language was introduced by Norbert Giambiasi in the 1990s. This paper first examines the specification of G-DEVS and gives an historical view of N Giambiasi’s works that contributed to this ...

Distributed Simulation has still to be adopted significantly by the wider simulation community. Reasons for this might be that distributed simulation applications are difficult to develop and access to multiple computing resources are required. Cloud ...

Different heterogeneous simulation components can be integrated to produce a more effective complex global system. The IEEE High-Level Architecture (HLA) is an international standard that promotes interoperability and reusability for distributed ...

The field of Supply Chain Management (SCM) is experiencing rapid strides in the use of Industry 4.0 technologies and the conceptualization of new supply chain configurations for online retail, sustainable and green supply chains, and the Circular ...

This paper addresses the questions of high-level system modelling using heterogeneous multi-tool modelling environment on parallel multi-core processing systems for simulation acceleration. The modelling technique has been applied for high-level ...

A detailed computer simulation is an important tool for the managing of road traffic. Since it can be very time consuming, it is often performed in a distributed computing environment. The simulated road traffic network is then divided into sub-networks ...

The High Level Architecture is an IEEE standard that enables distributed simulation. There are several implementations of the standard, which are providing i.a. the Run-Time Infrastructure component. This paper compares the four most known RTI ...

Agent-to-agent communications is an important operation in multi-agent systems and their simulation. Given the data-centric nature of agent-simulations, direct agent-to-agent communication is generally an orthogonal operation to accessing shared data in ...

The increasing complexity of modern systems makes their design, development, and operation extremely challenging and therefore new systems engineering and modeling and simulation (M&S) methods, techniques, and tools are emerging, also to benefit from ...

The increasing precision in simulation models leads to a high computational effort. In general, parallel and distributed simulation is one technique to speed up a simulation to an acceptable runtime. Depending on the simulation model, the suitability of ...

A novel way of distributed discrete event simulation, called approximate distributed discrete event simulation, is presented in this paper. Compared with the classic simulation, the models for approximate simulation give some kind of free margin to the ...

Modern systems are exposing an ever increasing degree of complexity also due to the heterogeneity of the involved components. Distributed simulation is widely recognized as an effective tool to carry out verification and validation activities for ...

The primary aim of this work is to demonstrate the feasibility of applying the High Level Architecture (HLA) framework to the distributed execution of physical urban building energy simulations that are too large to be supported within the resource ...

Human decision-making is influenced by social, psychological, neurological, emotional, normative, and learning factors, as well as individual traits like age and education level. Social/cognitive computational models that incorporate these factors are ...

Simulation-based analysis is essential in the model-based design process of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). Since heterogeneity is inherent to CPS, virtual prototyping of CPS designs and the simulation of their behavior in various environments typically ...

Distributed and Real-Time Simulation represents a solid and effective approach to manage the ever-increasing complexity of modern systems. The IEEE 1516-2010 for Modeling and Simulation (M&S) High Level Architecture (HLA) is an interoperability standard ...

Research on data confidentiality, integrity and availability is gaining momentum in the ICT community, due to the intrinsically insecure nature of the Internet. While many distributed systems and services are now based on secure communication protocols ...
