Abstract
Nodes interconnected by a network have their substantially parallel execution simulated. Substantially parallel execution of the nodes during a current quantum of simulation time having a quantum length is simulated. Simulation of execution can result in simulation of inter-node data packets being transmitted over the network. When the current quantum of simulation time has elapsed, simulation of execution of the nodes is synchronized. If no inter-node data packets were transmitted in simulation during the current quantum of simulation time, then the quantum length is increased. If one or more inter-node data packets were transmitted in simulation during the current quantum of simulation time, then the quantum length is decreased. This process is then repeated for a next quantum of simulation time having the quantum length as has been increased or decreased.
