At the same time, multi-core systems have become the de facto standard hardware platform. Unfortunately, wireless systems pose a particular challenge for parallel execution due to a tight coupling of network entities in space and time. Moreover, model developers are often domain experts with no in-depth understanding of parallel and distributed simulation. In combination, both aspects severely limit the performance and the efficiency of existing parallelization techniques. We address these challenges by presenting parallel expanded event simulation, a novel modeling paradigm that extends discrete events with durations which span a period in simulated time. The resulting expanded events form the basis for a conservative synchronization scheme that considers overlapping expanded events eligible for parallel processing. We furthermore put these concepts into practice by implementing Horizon, a parallel expanded event simulation framework specifically tailored to the characteristics of multi-core systems. Our evaluation shows that Horizon achieves considerable speedups in synthetic as well as real-world simulation models and considerably outperforms the current state-of-the-art in distributed simulation.}, keywords = {Parallel discrete event simulation, Multi-core Systems, Wireless Systems, Simulation Modeling Paradigm, Conservative Synchronization}, tags = {horizon}, publisher = {ACM}, language = {en}, DOI = {10.1145/2832909}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Kunz, Georg and Stoffers, Mirko and Landsiedel, Olaf and Wehrle, Klaus and Gross, James} } @Inproceedings { 2015-stoffers-mswim-data-deps, title = {Data Dependency based Parallel Simulation of Wireless Networks}, year = {2015}, month = {11}, day = {2}, pages = {291-300}, abstract = {Simulation of wireless systems is highly complex and can only be efficient if the simulation is executed in parallel. To this end, independent events have to be identified to enable their simultaneous execution. Hence, the number of events identified as independent needs to be maximized in order to increase the level of parallelism. Traditionally, dependencies are determined only by time and location of events: If two events take place on the same simulation entity, they must be simulated in timestamp order. Our approach to overcome this limitation is to also investigate data-dependencies between events. This enables event reordering and parallelization even for events at the same simulation entity. To this end, we design the simulation language PSimLa, which aids this process. In this paper, we discuss the PSimLa design and compiler as well as our data-dependency analysis approach in detail and present case studies of wireless network models, speeded up by a factor of 10 on 12 cores where time-based parallelization only achieves a 1.6x speedup.}, note = {Best Paper Award}, keywords = {Parallel simulation; Static code analysis; Data dependencies}, tags = {horizon}, url =

multiprocessor systems is hard. A primary concern is the considerable amount of parallelization overhead imposed on the event handling routines of the simulation framework. Besides more complex event scheduling algorithms, the main sources of overhead are thread synchronization and locking of shared data structures. As a result, the overhead of parallelization may easily outweigh the benefits of parallelization in comparison to classic sequential simulation. We introduce two efficient event handling schemes based on our parallel-simulation extension Horizon for the OMNeT++ simulator.First, we present a \textbackslashemph\{push-based event handling scheme\} to minimize the overhead of thread synchronization and locking. Second, we complement this scheme with a novel \textbackslashemph\{event scheduling algorithm\} that significantly reduces the overhead of parallel event scheduling. Lastly, we prove the correctness of our scheduling algorithm. Our evaluation reveals a total reduction in the event handling overhead of up to 16x when combining both schemes.}, tags = {horizon}, url = {fileadmin/papers/2011/2011-kunz-horizon-omnetworkshop.pdf}, misc2 = {Online}, publisher = {ICST}, address = {Brussels, Belgium}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on OMNeT++ (OMNeT++'11), Barcelona, Spain}, event_place = {Barcelona, Spain}, event_name = {4th International Workshop on OMNeT++ (OMNeT++'11)}, event_date = {March 21, 2011}, language = {en}, ISBN = {978-1-936968-00-8}, DOI = {10.4108/icst.simutools.2011.245504}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Kunz, Georg and Stoffers, Mirko and Gross, James and Wehrle, Klaus} }
