Abstract
The low cost and scalability of a PC and Ethernet-based network of workstations (NOW) makes the NOW an attractive platform for parallel discrete event simulation (PDES). This paper discusses the demands a parallel simulation places upon a network that connects distributed workstations, and presents two approaches to managing inter-processor communication in PDES on a NOW
