Parallelization of an event driven simulator for computer systems simulation
Article Abstract:
The technological revolution fueled by the microprocessor has produced commercial multiprocessors. Using basic parallel programming constructs, an existing multiprocessor system simulator is modified to execute in parallel on a shared memory multiprocessor. Several key techniques used to maximize parallelism are discussed. The simulation speedups achieved while simulating a proposed large scale multiprocessor architecture are reported. Finally, the techniques used in this research are compared with those that have been used by other parallelized simulators. (Reprinted with permission of the publisher.)

Solartron Introduces New Marine Radar Simulator
Article Abstract:
Solartron Simulation has introduced a new Marine Radar & Navigation Aids Simulator Type SY2094. Solartron's Digital Coastline Generator (DCLG) has been upgraded to support up to four trainee 'own ship' consoles and double the existing memory. An updated instructor's console, multi-color Labelled Plan Graphics Display, second VDU screen and IKAT interactive keyboard are included. A photograph of the instructor's console is included.
