A hybrid technique for accelerated simulation of ATM networks and network elements
Abstract:Conventional simulation of cell-or packet-switched networks involves the use of discrete event simulators that model each individual cell through the network, typically called cell-level simulation. Each cell's arrival at, or departure from, a network element is represented by an event. However, statistical considerations are such that very large numbers of cells have to be simulated to guarantee the accuracy of the results. This has always caused very long simulation times, often amounting to many hours of "r… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
