Summary: Technological improvements in the use of computers through the better management of multithreading, such as with multi-core computers (core duo, core 2 duo, core 2 quad), have resulted in a reassessment of systems for simulating discrete events which can exploit these new capabilities. We consider the design and implementation of a process-oriented discrete event simulation library which makes exhaustive use of concurrence to improve the efficiency with which the simulations are executed.
