In opposite to the most simulators which are stayed very oriented-application, SimGrid framework is designed to study the behavior of many large-scale distributed computing platforms as Grids, Peer-to-Peer systems, Clouds or High Performance Computation systems. It is still actively developed by the scientific community and distributed as an open source software. -In the scope of this paper, the Simgrid -toolkitSimGrid~\cite{SimGrid,casanova+legrand+quinson.2008.simgrid,casanova+giersch+legrand+al.2014.versatile}, -an open source framework actively developped by its community, has been choosen -to simulate the behavior of the solvers algorithms in different grid -computational configurations. Simgrid pretends to be non-specialized in opposite -to some other simulators which stayed to be very specific oriented-application. -One of the well-known Simgrid advantage is its SMPI (Simulated MPI). SMPI -purpose is to execute by simulation in a similar way as in real life, an MPI -distributed application and to get accurate results with the detailed resources -consumption. Several studies have demonstrated the accuracy of the simulation -compared with execution on real physical architectures. In addition of SMPI, -Simgrid provides other API which can be convienent for different distrbuted -applications: computational grid applications, High Performance Computing (HPC), -P2P but also clouds applications. In this paper we use the SMPI API. It -implements about \np[\%]{80} of the MPI 2.0 standard and allows minor -modifications of the initial code~\cite{bedaride+degomme+genaud+al.2013.toward} -(see Section~\ref{sec:04.02}). - - - Provided as an input to the simulator, at least $3$ XML files describe the - computational grid resources: number of clusters in the grid, number of - processors/cores in each cluster, detailed description of the intra and inter - networks and the list of the hosts in each cluster (see the details in Section~\ref{sec:expe}).

These works show the accuracy of -SimGrid simulations. +SimGrid provides four user interfaces which can be convenient for different distributed applications~\cite{casanova+legrand+quinson.2008.simgrid}. In this paper we are interested on the SMPI user interface (Simulator MPI) which implements about \np[\%]{80} of the MPI 2.0 standard and allows minor modifications of the initial code~\cite{bedaride+degomme+genaud+al.2013.toward} (see Section~\ref{sec:04.02}). SMPI enables the direct simulation of the execution, as in the real life, of an unmodified MPI distributed application, and gets accurate results with the detailed resources consumption. + +SimGrid simulator uses at least three XML input files describing the computational grid resources: the number of clusters in the grid, the number of processors/cores in each cluster, the detailed description of the intra and inter networks and the list of the hosts in each cluster (see the details in Section~\ref{sec:expe}). SimGrid uses a fluid model to simulate the program execution. It allows several simulation modes which produce accurate results~\cite{bedaride+degomme+genaud+al.2013.toward,velho+schnorr+casanova+al.2013.validity}. For instance, the "in vivo" mode really executes the computation but "intercepts" the communications (the execution time is then evaluated according to the parameters of the simulated platform). It is also possible for SimGrid/SMPI to only keep the duration of large computations by skipping them. Moreover the application can be run "in vitro" mode by sharing some in-memory structures between the simulated processes and thus allowing the use of very large-scale data. + +The choice of SimGrid/SMPI as a simulator tool in this study has been emphasized by the results obtained by several studies to validate, in the real environments, the behavior of different network models simulated in SimGrid~\cite{velho+schnorr+casanova+al.2013.validity}. Other studies underline the comparison between the real MPI application executions and the SimGrid/SMPI ones~\cite{guermouche+renard.2010.first,clauss+stillwell+genaud+al.2011.single,bedaride+degomme+genaud+al.2013.toward}.
