Another good old example, where one Master process has a bunch of task to dispatch to a set of several Worker
processes.

first.

The computations done in your program are not reported to the
simulated world, unless you explicitely request the simulator to pause
the actor until a given amount of flops gets computed on its simulated
host. Some executions can be given an higher priority so that they
get more resources.

+ @ref examples/s4u/exec-async/s4u-exec-async.cpp \n
+ You can start asynchronous executions, in a way that is very
+ similar to asynchronous communications.

+ TODO: add an example about parallel executions.

- This example illustrates the use of operations on files
- (read, write, seek, tell, unlink, ...).
+SimGrid provides two levels of abstraction. You can either use the
+FileSystem plugin, or interact directly with the disks. At the file
+system level, you can open files and interact with them. A write
+operation may fail if the disk is already full. Using the direct (low
+level) interface, you just specify the amount of data that is written
+or read, and this is done unconditionnally. Both levels have
+respective advantages, depending on what you want to model.
