Parallel Simulation of NEPs on Clusters

This paper compares two different approaches, followed by our research group, to efficiently run NEPs on parallel platforms, as general and transparent as possible. The vague results of jNEP (our multithreaded Java simulator for multicore desktop computers) suggests the use of massively parallel platforms (clusters of computers). The good results obtained show the scalability and viability of this last approach.
