Simulation is used extensively to evaluate complex systems, including telecommunications networks. This paper provides a summary of simulation techniques, focussing on enhanced forms of discrete eventdriven simulation that are capable of modeling large or high-speed networks in a reasonable time-frame. Various approaches are introduced though particular attention is paid to schemes that employ functional and/or spatial decomposition.
