It's free for the asking, just send me E-mail and I'll E-mail the simulation environment, along with the demonstration program. Warning: I've looked at the object code generated by Pascal compilers on the 80x86 family of machines, and you have two choices: Decent code, with a limit of 64K bytes of variables, including stack and heap, or horrible code with no limit on the size of your data. Jim Henriksen once told me that he thought the 80x86 was a horrible architecture for supporting simulation, and I agree!

Nance - SRC <srcnance@popeye.cs.vt.edu> To: simulation@bikini.cis.ufl.edu Subject: Request by Ram Reddy for PC Simulation Packages Do you truly mean that you want the ability "to model the nodes as objects with attributes that can be changed on the fly"? Your following sentence does not clarify the statement. Changing attribute VALUES on the fly I can understand; changing attributes would be a major departure from the object oriented paradigm, but would be accomodated within the actor paradigm. If that is your interest, you might contact Dennis Kafura (kafura@ vtopus.cs.vt.edu).

The version on ucbarpa will not be updated from now on. REAL Version 3.0 ---------------- REAL is a data network simulator that simulates networks at the packet level. It implements several flow control protocols (TCP, DECbit etc) and scheduling disciplines (Fair Queueing, FCFS etc). There are plotting and report facilities, and means as well as variances of simulation variables are reported. REAL is written in C, and will run on BSD4.3/Ultrix/UMIPS systems on VAX, SUN, SPARC, MIPS or DECstation hardware. Online documentation and source code are part of the distribution. keshav ------------------------------ To: comp-simulation@rutgers.edu Path: largo.rutgers.edu!lee From: lee@largo.RUTGERS.EDU (Yong-fong Lee) Newsgroups: comp.lang.fortran,comp.simulation Subject: Fortran source code Date: 4 Oct 90 14:40:51 GMT Followup-To: comp.lang.fortran Organization: Rutgers Univ., New Brunswick, N.J. Hi, I have tried to post the request, but never saw it appears on the net. OK. For an empirical study of my data flow analysis (*) algorithms, I need Fortran programs which do not need to be "big" themselves, but had better contain "big" (**) procedures and/or subroutines. If you write and/or have any Fortran programs, please do help. Thank you. Yong-fong Lee (lee@cs.rutgers.edu) (*) Data flow analysis is a compile-time analysis that finds the definitions and uses of variables; its results can be used for compiler optimizations and some other usages. (**) I do not have a precise measurement for "big" procedures. If you THINK your programs MAY be big, they ARE big. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 4 Oct 90 16:19:11 +0100 From: acuenca@gmv.es (Agustin Cuenca / GMV) To: simulation@bikini.cis.ufl.edu Subject: News article.

Typical potential application areas are: - Data buses, backplanes and transmission channels for fast digital systems. - Large signal interconnects of say 100000 balanced or unbalanced strip lines with minimum mass and size. - RF signal and power coax lines. Any information on available simulation tools, models and modeling methods would be highly appreciated.
