Abstract
The paper describes Nops, a conservatively synchronized process oriented parallel simulation system. Nops is designed to support the programming model of the Telecommunications Description Language (TeD), with special emphasis on scaling up to very large network models. We chronicle the decisions beyond 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
