Does ROOS-Sim support conservative time synchronization?

[suchenjm]

Does ROOS-Sim support conservative time synchronization, and does it support multi-threaded operation? If so, please provide some references.

Hello!
ROOT-Sim is multi-threaded and also supports distributed execution with MPI.
At the moment ROOT-Sim supports optimistic synchronization via the Time Warp protocol, while conservative synchronization is not implemented. Still, we are experimenting with less aggressive optimistic synchronization algorithms as shown in this publication.
If you want to cite ROOT-Sim in your work, please consider also this publication.
Feel free to reach out for more information!

Hi @suchenjm
Thanks for your interest.

We have a preliminary implementation of a conservative scheduler, but the code is not yet mature enough for publishing. We are currently using it only for our internal projects.

It's on the roadmap anyhow to publish it, probably in the next release.

I'll let you know once it's out.

It's really exciting news and I'm looking forward to it
