Abstract :
The study of the performance of parallel applications may have different reasons. One of them is the planning of the execution architecture to guaranty a quality of service. In this case, it is also necessary to study the computer hardware, the operating system, the network and the users behavior. This paper proposes different models for those based on simulation. First results of this work show the impact of the network and the necessary precision of communication model in fine-grained parallel applications.
