A Scalable GVT Estimation Algorithm for PDES: Using Lower Bound of Event-Bulk-Time

Table 2

Description of experimental parameters.

	The number of LPs in the PHOLD model.
	The remote event ratio of the PHOLD model.
	The mean time delay of an event in PHOLD model, which is set to 1 second in the simulation time.
	The number of worker-threads (processor core, the worker-thread, and the processor represent the same meaning in this paper) used in experiments. Each scheduler of LB-EBT simulator is mapped onto a worker-thread during the whole simulation execution.
	The size of the EB, which is identical for all schedulers in LB-EBT GVT algorithm.
	The branch factor of the communication topology in our algorithm.
	is the check point period of FA-GVT. The check point period of LB-EBT GVT algorithm is not constant and depends on the size of EB.
