PADS provides a forum for presenting recent results in parallel and
distributed simulation. The scope of the conference includes:
TOPICS
o Algorithms and methods for parallel simulation
(E.g. synchronization, scheduling, memory management, load
balancing, partitioning and allocation)
o Models of parallel simulation
(E.g. stochastic, markovian, process algebraic, temporal logic)
o Methodologies for parallel simulation
(E.g. system modeling for parallel simulation, specification,
adapting sequential methodologies, parallelizing existing
simulations, new methodologies for parallel simulation)
o Implementation Issues
(E.g. general-purpose parallel simulators, application-
specific parallel simulators, relationship to the underlying
architecture, languages for parallel simulation)
o Performance of parallel simulation
(E.g. theoretical studies, empirical studies, benchmarks,
comparative studies)
o Application of parallel simulation
(E.g. simulation of computer architectures, VLSI circuits,
personal communication systems, telecommunication networks)
o Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS)
(E.g. event synchronization in distributed multi-user virtual
reality environments)
o Distributed Simulation on the WWW
(E.g., ``world wide simulation'', using CGI, JAVA, VRML,
CORBA, etc.\ to build distributed simulators)
