Abstract
We propose a computing technique for efficient parallel simulation of compute-intensive DEVS models on the IBM Cell processor, combining multi-grained parallelism and various optimizations to speed up the event execution. Unlike most existing parallelization strategies, our approach explicitly exploits the massive fine-grained event-level parallelism inherent in the simulation process, while most of the logical processes are virtualized, making the achievable parallelism more deterministic and predictable. Together, the parallelization and optimization strategies produced promising experimental results, accelerating the simulation of a 3D environmental model by a factor of up to 33.06. The proposed methods can also be applied to other multicore and shared-memory architectures.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
