Abstract
We develop a theory of superdense time that encompasses existing uses of superdense time in discrete event simulations and points to new forms that have not previously been explored. A central feature of our development is a set of axioms for superdense time. The sufficiency of these axioms is demonstrated by using them to prove that a general model of a discrete event simulation procedure, expressed in terms of a mathematical system, constitutes a state transition function. Several forms of superdense time, both known and novel, are shown to satisfy the axioms.

Conservative vs. optimistic parallel simulation of DEVS and Cell-DEVS: a comparative study
SCSC '10: Proceedings of the 2010 Summer Computer Simulation ConferenceThe conservative Parallel DEVS protocol offers a novel approach that allows conservative simulation of DEVS-based PDES systems. The protocol is based on the classical Chandy-Misra-Bryant synchronization mechanism, and it extends the DEVS abstract ...
