Deployment and management of large planar reflectarray antennas simulation on grid
Résumé
Nowadays, scientists are interested in using computer grids to run their specific domain applications. Nevertheless the difficulty for non expert in computer science to run those applications on a high number of nodes discourages them. This paper deals with the deployment and the management of an electromagnetic simulator on a computer grid, by using the TUNe autonomic middleware. First, we describe the simulator and how to make it work with TUNe. Then, we measure TUNe's performance during specific phases: deployment, starting and undeployment. Moreover, some capabilities like automatic repair of applications in case of failure are shown.
