\li SimGrid: a Generic Framework for Large-Scale Distributed
Experimentations\n
by Henri Casanova, Arnaud Legrand and Martin Quinson\n
Proceedings of the 10th IEEE International Conference on Computer
Modelling and Simulation (UKSIM/EUROSIM'08)\n
Distributed computing is a very broad and active research area
comprising fields such as cluster computing, computational
grids, desktop grids and peer-to-peer (P2P) systems.
Unfortunately, it is often impossible to obtain theoretical or
analytical results to compare the performance of algorithms
targeting such systems. One possibility is to conduct large
numbers of back-to-back experiments on real platforms. While
this is possible on tightly-coupled platforms, it is infeasible
on modern distributed platforms as experiments are labor-intensive
and results typically not reproducible. Consequently, one must
resort to simulations, which enable reproducible results and also
make it possible to explore wide ranges of platform and
application scenarios.\n
In this paper we describe the SimGrid framework, a
simulation-based framework for evaluating cluster, grid and P2P
algorithms and heuristics. This paper focuses on SimGrid v3, which
greatly improves on previous versions thanks to a novel and
validated modular simulation engine that achieves higher
simulation speed without hindering simulation accuracy. Also, two
new user interfaces were added to broaden the targeted research
community. After surveying existing tools and methodologies we
describe the key features and benefits of SimGrid.\n
