A useful discrete-event simulation environment should support component-level reuse, integration of graphical tools, and scalable performance. The JTED framework (http://www.cooperate.com/JTED) demonstrates that Java can serve as the basis for constructing very large models that achieve these goals.

✦ Synopsis
Java is a very promising language for use in the simulation of physical models due to its objectoriented nature, portability, robustness and support for multithreading. This paper presents JWarp, a Java library for discrete-event parallel simulations. It is based on an optimistic model for synchronization of the simulation entities: the Time Warp mechanism. We introduce the main features of the library and discuss some of the implementation details.

DESP-C++ is a C++ discrete-event random simulation engine that has been designed to be fast, very easy to use and expand, and to be valid. DESP-C++ is based on the resource view. Its complete architecture is presented in detail, as well as a short 'user manual'. The validity of DESP-C++ is demonstra
We discuss the role of Java and Web technologies for general simulation. We classify the classes of concurrency typical in problems and analyse separately the role of Java in user interfaces, coarse grain software integration and detailed computational kernels. We conclude that Java could become a m
