[Swarm-Modelling] Question about Distributed Simulations

[docgca]

Hello list,

I'm not sure which is the correct list for this question so my 
apologies in advance. I am looking into the feasibility of running a 
Swarm simulation on IBM's Blue Gene L, which has as its base rack a 
1000 node cluster (2000 PPC 5 processors). The question is whether an 
individual run could be done across the entire cluster, with groups of 
agents distributed among all the nodes and communication across the 
nodes. I recall threads having to with distributed simulations but 
cannot remember if that was distribution for batch runs or for a single 
run. If this has been extensively discussed perhaps someone could point 
me towards that archived thread? Thanks in advance.
