Abstract
We describe a method of decoupling networks for the purpose of running a simulation in parallel with each separate section executing with different time steps. The speed advantages are system-dependent, but a particular scenario where the method is applicable is studied, resulting in a speedup of more than 5 when running on a cluster of two computers.
