In this paper we discuss an application of network computing in the area of stochastic simulation. We focus on main programming issues associated with designing of the latest version of AKAROA2, a simulation package in which network computing is applied in a practical and user-friendly way. This implemention is based on Multiple Replications In Parallel (MRIP) scenario of distributed simulation, in which multiple computers of a network operate as concurrent simulation engines generating statistically equivalent simulation output data, and submitting them to global data analysers responsible for analysis of the final results and for stopping the simulation. The MRIP scenario can achieve speedup equal to the number of processors used.
