Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Two parallel algorithms for simulating a sliding window communication protocol are described. The first exploits the parallel generation of interarrival, service and transfer times, whilst the second is based on parallel prefix computations. Both algorithms allow the processors to work largely asynchronously with each other. The efficiency of the two approaches is evaluated experimentally, using an implementation on a cluster of 12 processors connected by fast Ethernet. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
