  ABSTRACT: This work proposes a new simulation algorithm to improve message handling in discrete event formalism. We present an approach to minimize simulation execution time. To do this, we propose to reduce the number of exchanged messages between Parallel DEVS (PDEVS) components (simulators and coordinators). We propose three changes from PDEVS: direct coupling, flat structure and local schedule. The goal is the decentralisation of a number of tasks to make the simulators more autonomous and simplify the coordinators to achieve a greater speedup. We propose to compare the simulation results of several models to demonstrate the benefits of our approach.
