Welcome to the PADS homepage, you can find some information about this research group, the active projects and the related publications.

A lot of our research work is based on a new Parallel and Distributed Simulation (PADS) middleware (ARTÌS). The GAIA framework provides a migration-based approach to the simulation. The ARTÌS middleware and the GAIA framework are available for educational and research purposes.

Please feel free to contact us for any question or comment.

In the tutorial “Parallel and Distributed Simulation from Many Cores to the Public Cloud” the main concepts behind the current research effort are introduced.

Starting from the simulation basics some the new challenges for parallel and distributed simulation are discussed. Are current simulation technologies ready to support cloud computing? What about the usability of the available simulation tools?

Some additional resouces (in italian) are available for students and local users:

• Il cluster di simulazione PADS
• La documentazione online di ARTÌS
