Source size parameters measured via two-particle interferometry in experiment NA44 for 200 GeV/nucleon S+Pb collisions are compared to calculations using the RQMD event generator. Reasonable agreement is found in most cases. Based on this agreement, the model is used to study some of the interesting details of the collision dynamics which are not easily measured. 27 refs., 4 figs., 1 tab
