SPREAD: A Distributed Simulation Toolkit
نویسندگان
چکیده
this article describes “SPREAD”, a simulation tool kit and its use in building “Virtual Robots”, a simulation of multiple mobile robot vehicles used in the teaching of Computer Science at university level. A novel aspect of the simulator is the use of PVM [1] to achieve high performance at low cost by using spare CPU cycles on large numbers of networked workstations.

The Cost of Adding Security Services to Group Communication Systems
Numerous applications requiring information delivery from one sender to many receivers are based on a group communication model. Group communication systems are used in industry and military systems where reliability and high-availability are required. With the growth of the Internet, the number of applications that can take advantage of a group communication infrastructure increased (teleconfe...
متن کاملAssessment of a cluster of gold nanoparticles effect on cell absorbed dose using the Geant4 toolkit
Introduction: Radiotherapy plays a vital role in cancer treatment. To establish a new potency in radiosensitize tumor cells, delivery of High-Z materials is offered. To date, several simulation geometries have been applied to define simulation sets. The clustering of nanoparticles (NPs) within the cells is a prominent parameter usually ignored in simulation studies. <stro...

متن کاملApplication Experiences with the Globus
The development of applications and tools for high-performance \computational grids" is complicated by the heterogeneity and frequently dynamic behavior of the underlying resources; by the complexity of the applications themselves, which often combine aspects of supercomputing and distributed computing; and by the need to achieve high levels of performance. The Globus toolkit has been developed...
