Efficient Simulation Technique for Performance studies of of CSMA/CD Local Networks

Abstract
| A new simulation technique is presented for performance studies of
local area networks which use CSMA/CD as the access protocol. The
method requires partitioning the network stations into a few primary
stations and the remainder as background stations

Notes
| An early example of the partition style hybrid technique. A CSMA/CD network, ethernet for example, is
modeled. Primary nodes
are simulated by discrete events. Nodes of less interest - background nodes -
are simulated analytically. Two variations are proposed: in the first primary
nodes are affected by the background, but not vice versa; in the second method,
both types interact.
