It can be used to evaluate heuristics, prototype applications +or even assess legacy MPI applications. - - XBT: eXtended Bundle of Tools (low-level toolbox: logging, datatypes). - - SURF: a SimUlation aRtiFact. This is the simulation kernel. - - MSG: originally MetaSimGrid, MSG is a simple distributed application - simulator. - - GRAS: Grid Reality And Simulation (message passing API with two - implementations allowing to compile programs on top of the - simulator or for the real life without code modification) - - AMOK: Advanced Metacomputing Overlay Kit (high level toolbox; Grid - application elements such as distributed database, topology - discovery service, and so on) +More documentation is included in this archive (doc/html/index.html) +or online at http://simgrid.gforge.inria.fr/ -More informations are available in the doc/ directory. +In any case, you may want to subscribe to the user mailing list +(http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/mailman/listinfo/simgrid-user). There, +you can find answers to your questions, or simply discuss with people +doing the same kind of research than you do, in an active and friendly +community. -In particular, don't forget to read the FAQ in there.
