- Basic estimation functions have been removed but can easily be replaced
- SD_route_get_communication_time => SG_route_get_latency() + amount / SD_route_get_bandwidth()
- SD_workstation_get_computation_time => amount / sg_host_speed()
+ - In Java
+ - VM.setBound(int load) is now VM.setBound(double bound) to meet the MSG semantics. Use VM.getSpeed()*load/100 for the legacy behavior.
+ - In CMake
+ - option enable_tracing was removed. It was not doing anything since a while.
XML platforms:
* Switch to platform v4 format.
- Rename from 'power' to 'speed' the attributes describing the amount of
flops that a <host>, <peer>, <cluster> or <cabinet> can deliver per second.
- In <trace_connect>, attribute kind="POWER" is now kind="SPEED".
- - The DOCTYPE points to the right URL (this file):
+ - In <host> and <link>, attributes availability and state are gone.
+ It was redundent with state and availability traces, and with peak values.
+ - In <cluster>, attributes availability_file and state_file are gone.
+ It was too complex and unused.
+ - Kill <gpu>. Was not doing anything.
+ - The DOCTYPE points to the right URL:
http://simgrid.gforge.inria.fr/simgrid/simgrid.dtd
(the file at this address now documents the changelog since its v1)
- A warning is emitted for unit-less values (they are still accepted).
* Kill the queue data container: it made more sense with GRAS.
* Kill the xbt_peer_t data type: it's useless without GRAS.
* Kill rm_cb feature of config sets: it was never useful.
+ * Kill graphxml parsing feature. It was not used.
+ * Kill the deprecated code protected by XBT_USE_DEPRECATED
* New functions:
- xbt_dynar_sort_strings(), when the content is char*
- xbt_str_parse_int / xbt_str_parse_double, wrapping strtol/strtod

+SimGrid-java (3.8.1) stable; urgency=low
+
+ * New module: org.simgrid.trace.Trace (SimGrid trace bindings)
+ Warning: all methods are visible, but only some of them are
+ implemented so far. Check the source (src/jtrace.c)
+ for further information.
+ * New module: org.simgrid.msg.File (SimGrid File management functions)
+ * New Module: org.simgrid.msg.VM (SimGrid interface to mimick IAAS clouds)
+ * Change the meaning of Process.restart: now restart the process from
+ the begining, like MSG_process_restart in C.
+ * Add Process.setAutoRestart: handling of process restart when failed
+ host comes back.
+ * Add Process.getProperty, Host.getProperty, Host.getProperty: allows
+ you to retrieve the properties of the processes/hosts
+ * Deprecate Msg.clean(): you can just forget about it now.
+ * New function Process.getCount(), that only works when compiling
+ with the not yet released version 3.9 of the C library.
+
+ * New context factory based on Coroutines. It mandates a modified JVM
+ but then, the simulations run about five times faster, and there is
+ no limit to the amount of processes (beside of the available memory).

SimGrid (3.7.1) stable; urgency=low
MSG:
-- Thu Jun 7 2012 Da SimGrid team <simgrid-devel@lists.gforge.inria.fr>
+
+SimGrid-java (3.7.1) stable; urgency=low
+
+ The "Java aint got to be bloated and slow" release
+
+ Major cleanups:
+ * Various internal cleanups and performance improvement
+ Simulations are expected to run up to twice faster or so
+ * Make Process.kill(process) an instance method, not a static one
+ * User processes are not java.lang.Thread subclasses.
+ This breaks the compatibility (sorry), but previous API was
+ brain-dead, making it impossible to have non-trivial
+ initializations in the process constructor.
+ * Require a full constructor per Process sub-class.
+ Kinda breaks the compatibility (sorry), but this allows a much more
+ efficient way to launch the processes at simulation startup.
+ * Do not embeed our version of semaphores, java 1.5 can be considered
+ as sufficiently prevalent for us to not dupplicate its features.
+ * Lot of bug fixes
+
+ Extend the API:
+ * Add examples for almost every part of the API
+ We spotted and fixed a lot of bugs in the process
+
+ * New module: asynchronous communication API
+ * New function: Process.sleep()
+ It takes milliseconds as argument, just as java.lang.Thread.sleep()
+ * New module: org.simgrid.msg.Mutex (SimGrid mutexes)
+ * New module: org.simgrid.msg.RngStream (RngStreams random generators)
