Abstract

Sequential discrete event simulation is widely employed to study the behavior of many systems. Events are typically managed in a central event list which is implemented as a priority queue ordered by event timestamps. Most research to improve sequential simulation performance has focused on improving the priority queue implementations. Recent work has demonstrated that asynchronous conservative parallel discrete event simulation systems can achieve better sequential performance under some conditions, but worse performance under other conditions. This paper introduces a new sequential discrete event simulation algorithm that can exhibit some of the same performance advantages of asynchronous conservative parallel discrete event simulation algorithms and has complexity no more than that of central event list algorithms in the worst case.
