Abstract
This paper describes Nops, a conservatively synchro,nized process-or&ted parallel simulation system. Nops is designed to support the programming model of the Telecommunications Description Language (TeD), with special emphasis o’n scaling up to very large network models. We chronicle the decisions beyo,nd Nops’ design, describe that design, assess its raw performance relative to CSIM, Maisie, and GTW, and study its ability to scale to large models.Keywords
