Yes, you can certainly use GridSim to simulate job scheduling across multiple clusters. The latest version of GridSim (i.e. 5.0) comes with some scheduling policies at the cluster level that might be useful to you. > And the second question is if GridSim supports the hability to assign the > tasks of a job to a predefined allocation that I can pass to the simulator. > For example, if I have a job that is composed by three tasks, I can tell > GridSim to allocate these tasks to the machines manually, specifying it in a > text file? I am not quite sure if I understood what you need. I believe you can customise one of the policies mentioned beforehand to read the information from a file and assign jobs to the respective nodes in the cluster. Regards, Marcos |
