A specialised publish-subscribe simulation model is used for the new simulator architecture. The simulation model, including the process synchronisation, is implemented using a low latency peer-to-peer TCP messaging protocol. The TCP send and receive buffers and TCP's Nagle algorithm are also tweaked to ensure low latency communication. Gigabit Ethernet is used at the hardware layer. A paralellised execution speed-up of four to five times is reached with six to eight machines at a simulation frame rate of 100Hz.
