  10 # Welcome to the SimGrid project!
  11
  12 SimGrid is a scientific instrument to study the behavior of
  13 large-scale distributed systems such as Grids, Clouds, HPC or P2P
  14 systems. It can be used to evaluate heuristics, prototype applications
  15 or even assess legacy MPI applications.
  16
  17 More documentation is included in this archive (doc/html/index.html)
  18 or [online](http://simgrid.gforge.inria.fr/)
  19
  20 In any case, you may want to subscribe to the [user mailing list](http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/mailman/listinfo/simgrid-user).
  21 There, you can find answers to your questions, or simply discuss with
  22 people doing the same kind of research than you do, in an active and
  23 friendly community.
  24
  25 Thanks for using our software. Please do great things with it and tell
  26 the world about it. Tell us, too, because we love to have positive
  27 feedback.
