[GridSim-users] Executing gridlets that use multiple PEs

[Enis A. <af...@ua...>]

Hello,
I'm running into some trouble with executing gridlets that have numPEs set
to a value greater than 1. When creating a gridlet, I set the number of PEs
for it to use, but once executed the numPEs is reset to 1 and the following
message appears in the stdout:
Gridlet #0 from SimEx user requires 3 PEs.
--> Process this Gridlet to 1 PE only.

After looking around some (e.g,
https://smarty.isi.edu/svn/repo1/CloudCleanupSimulator/trunk/gridsimtoolkit-4.0/source/gridsim/TimeShared.java),
it looks like multi-PE execution is not supported in GridSim, so I'm
wondering if there are any workarounds, implementation suggestions, or
recent patches that implement this functionality?

Thanks,
Enis
