Abstract
This paper describes HeSSE, a research project whose objective is the development of a simulator of heterogeneous systems starting from an existing simulator of PVM applications. After a discussion on the main issues involved in dealing with a wider class of applications, the devised simulator design is described. Finally, the state of the art of the project is presented.
