SimGrid is an open source framework for evaluating algorithms and heuristics in distributed systems through simulation.[3]
It consists of tools for comparing, evaluating, analyzing, and prototyping different algorithms, platform configurations, and system designs. SimGrid aimed to create tests by analyzing system behavior through simulating distributed computing environments and platforms.
SimGrid is distributed as Free software under the LGPL 2.1 license.[4]
APIs
SimGrid supports multiple programming languages and operating systems through its APIs, which provide tools to analyze scheduling strategies, resource allocation policies, fault tolerance mechanisms, and other aspects of distributed computing. SimGrid is used in various fields, such as cloud computing, high-performance computing, grid computing, and peer-to-peer networking, in order to identify bottlenecks and assess system efficiency.
SimGrid consists of four different interfaces:
- Simulation Directed Acyclic Graph (SimDAG): SimDAG allows users to add tasks, add dependencies between tasks, retrieve information about the platform, schedule tasks for execution on particular resources, and compute the DAG's execution time.[3]
- Meta Scheduling Grid (MSG): MSG allows studying Constraint Satisfaction Problems applications. It is utilized for studying and scheduling algorithms, among others.[3]
- Grid Reality And Simulation (GRAS): This interface enables the development of distributed applications within the simulator, which can then be deployed without requiring code modifications.[5]
- Simulated Message Passing Interface (SMPI): This interface allows simulation of unmodified MPI applications by intercepting MPI primitives.
