1. A method for increasing the event throughput of a discrete-event simulation comprising the steps of:

  • maintaining an event list for the discrete-event simulation, the event list comprising a head event; and

    determining whether the head event is uncomputed, in-computation, or pre-computed;

    if the head event is determined to be uncomputed, executing the head event;

    if the head event is determined to be in-computation, indicating the head event as pre-computed upon completion of a computation for the head event without affecting a system state of said discrete-event simulation; and

    if the head event is determined to be pre-computed, further determining whether the computation of the head event is valid or invalid;

    if the computation of the head event is determined to be valid, applying the computation of the head event; and

    if the computation of the head event is determined to be invalid, executing the head event.
