Abstract
| A new scheme for interactively testing what-if and alternative
scenarios in parallel simulations is presented. Potential branches
or choices can be specified interactively and interjected into the
on-going simulation as decision points. Once a decision point is
defined, different "futures" are computed by cloning the simulation,
and executing the clones concurrently. A construct called virtual
logical processes is introduced to avoid repeating common computations
in different cloned simulations.
