Abstract
Event-oriented serial simulation is a major method for discrete event systems while real-time parallel simulation is used mainly in agent-based models. Combining the advantages of these two methods, an agent-oriented parallel simulation approach using process interaction worldview is proposed on the basis of an agent-based model. Activations and delays are conveyed in the form of messages between simulator and agents. The simulation clock advances in a sequence of activation points. All concurrent activations are sent to agents at a time and associated agents respond in parallel. A brief framework is developed by means of multi-threading and synchronization technology and applied to analyze a queuing system where the results show the validity of the proposed method.
