=============================================
SimGrid is a framework to simulate distributed computer systems. It can be used
-to either `assess abstract algorithms <usecase_simalgo>`_, or to `debug and
-profile real MPI applications <usecase_smpi>`_.
+to either :ref:`assess abstract algorithms <usecase_simalgo>`, or to
+:ref:`debug and profile real MPI applications <usecase_smpi>`.
SimGrid is routinely used in studies on (data-)Grids,
IaaS Clouds (:ref:`API <API_s4u_VirtualMachine>`, :ref:`examples <s4u_ex_clouds>`),
SimGrid is a Free Software distributed under the LGPL-2.1 license. You are
welcome to use, study, share and improve it, provided that your version are as
-free as ours. SimGrid is developed by a vivid community of users and developers.
-We hope that you will come and join us! SimGrid is the result of almost 20 years
-of research from several groups, both in France and in the U.S.A. It benefited
-of many funding from various research bodies.
