Title
Experiences on parallel replicated discrete-event simulation on a GRID
Abstract
Concurrent and distributed simulation has proven its value reducing the time researchers spend in simulation model validation and execution. Our research group has developed distributed simulation tools applicable to any discrete-event simulator. PVM was used before as distributed execution environment, but the use of PVM is not transparent for final users. On the other hand, GRID frameworks are being used successfully to distribute execution of applications. Once a GRID framework is installed and configured, it is very easy to use for any user so we thought that GRID frameworks could be a better base system than PVM for our distributed simulation tool. The experience presented in this paper shows that GRID frameworks offer an environment that is easier to exploit, while providing similar efficiency than the PVM version used previously.
