Query: Parallel and Distributed Simulation from Many Cores to the Public Cloud
  (Extended Version)   In this tutorial paper, we will firstly review some basic simulation concepts
and then introduce the parallel and distributed simulation techniques in view
of some new challenges of today and tomorrow. More in particular, in the last
years there has been a wide diffusion of many cores architectures and we can
expect this trend to continue. On the other hand, the success of cloud
computing is strongly promoting the everything as a service paradigm. Is
parallel and distributed simulation ready for these new challenges? The current
approaches present many limitations in terms of usability and adaptivity: there
is a strong need for new evaluation metrics and for revising the currently
implemented mechanisms. In the last part of the paper, we propose a new
approach based on multi-agent systems for the simulation of complex systems. It
is possible to implement advanced techniques such as the migration of simulated
entities in order to build mechanisms that are both adaptive and very easy to
use. Adaptive mechanisms are able to significantly reduce the communication
cost in the parallel/distributed architectures, to implement load-balance
techniques and to cope with execution environments that are both variable and
dynamic. Finally, such mechanisms will be used to build simulations on top of
unreliable cloud services.
