-\section intro_recommendation Recommended Steps
+## Installing the visualization softwares
-## Installing Viva
+Several tools can be used to visualize the result of SimGrid
+simulations and get a better understanding of simulations.
-This [software][fn:1] will be useful to make fancy graph or treemap
-visualizations and get a better understanding of simulations. You
-will first need to install pajeng:
+- [viva][fn:1] will be useful to make fancy graph or treemap visualizations.
+- [pajeng][fn:5] provides a Gantt-chart visualization.
+- [Vite][fn:6] also provides a Gantt-chart visualization.
-~~~~{.sh}
-sudo apt-get install git cmake build-essential libqt4-dev libboost-dev freeglut3-dev ;
-git clone https://github.com/schnorr/pajeng.git
-cd pajeng && mkdir -p build && cd build && cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME && make -j install
-cd ../../
-~~~~
-
-Then you can install viva.
-
-~~~~{.sh}
-sudo apt-get install libboost-dev libconfig++-dev libconfig8-dev libgtk2.0-dev freeglut3-dev
-git clone https://github.com/schnorr/viva.git
-cd viva && mkdir -p build_graph && cd build_graph && cmake ../ -DTUPI_LIBRARY=ON -DVIVA=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME && make -j install
-cd ../../
-~~~~
-
-## Installing Paje
-
-This [software][fn:5] provides a Gantt-chart visualization.
-
-~~~~{.sh}
-sudo apt-get install paje.app
-~~~~
-
-## Installing Vite
-
-This software provides a [Gantt-chart visualization][fn:6].
+Under Debian or Ubuntu, this is really easy with apt-get, while you
+may have to install from the source on other systems. Check the
+documentation of each software for more details.
~~~~{.sh}
-sudo apt-get install vite
+sudo apt-get install viva pajeng vite

\section intro_start Let's get started
~~~~{.sh}
./masterworker0 platforms/platform.xml deployment0.xml --cfg=tracing:yes \
--cfg=tracing/msg/process:yes
-LANG=C ; Paje simgrid.trace
+pajeng simgrid.trace
~~~~
Alternatively, you can use [vite][fn:6].
~~~~{.sh}
./masterworker3 platforms/platform.xml deployment3.xml --cfg=tracing:yes \
--cfg=tracing/msg/process:yes
-LANG=C; Paje simgrid.trace
+pajeng simgrid.trace
~~~~
OK, so it should now be obvious that round robin is actually
\section intro_todo TODO: Points to improve for the next time
- Propose equivalent exercises and skeleton in java.
-- Propose a virtualbox image with everything (simgrid, paje, viva,
+- Propose a virtualbox image with everything (simgrid, pajeng, viva,
...) already set up.
- Ease the installation on mac OS X (binary installer) and
windows.
