Abstract: ECATNets (Extended Concurrent Algebraic Term Nets) are a kind of high-level algebraic net used for specifying various aspects of distributed and parallel systems. We address the problem of developing parallel simulation techniques to analyze ECAT-Nets. Distributed discrete event simulation (DDES) is used to develop a simulation framework for studying their behaviour. The ECATNet model to be simulated is partitioned into several connected subnets. The various subnets are simulated in parallel by several logical processes. We develop and discuss a distributed simulation protocol based on the conservative approach to execute discrete event simulations of ECATNets.
