ABSTRACT
The execution time of a distributed simulation system depends on 3 factors: the achievable speedup, the synchronization-message delay and the data-message delay. The combination of such factors makes very hard predicting the benefit of transforming a local version of the simulator (LS) into a distributed version (DS). A LS/DS decision procedure is proposed in this paper to support the LS/DS decision process at design-time. The procedure is guided by a performance model of the DS. The High Level Architecture (HLA) distributed simulation protocol is assumed to be used.
