A simulation model of the CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) SPS star computer network is described. The model concentrates on simulating the message handling computer, through which all messages in the network pass. The paper describes the main features of the model, the transfer time parameters in the model and how performance measurements were used to assist in the calibration of the model.
