Abstract
| Data communication networks have been experiencing tremendous growth
in size, complexity, and heterogeneity over the last decade. This
trend poses a significant challenge to the design of scalable
performance evaluation methodologies. In this paper we propose
time-stepped hybrid simulation (TSHS) to deal with the scalability
issue faced by traditional packet level discrete event simulation
methods. TSHS is a framework that offers the user the flexibility
to choose the simulation time scale so as to trade off the
computational cost of the simulation with its fidelity. Simulation
speedup is achieved by evaluating the system at coarser time-scales.
The potential loss of simulation accuracy when fine-time-scale
behavior is evaluated at a coarser time-scale is studied both
analytically and..
