Here we present the tools which have been developped by Hemera people to ease large scale experiments on Grid'5000.
===Experimental engines===
===Experiment planification===
A new module has been added to [https://execo.gforge.inria.fr Execo] to directly access to the OAR database and retrieve the planning of the various ressources available on the Grid'5000 sites. This module can be used in a Python experimental script (see [http://execo.gforge.inria.fr/doc/latest-stable/userguide.html#check-cpu-performance-settings-of-each-grid5000-clusters Execo planning example]).
For non-Python user, a command line tool has been used and is installed on any Grid'5000 frontend: [[Funk]]. It ease a lot multi-site experiment planification.

Overview

Héméra is a INRIA large scale initiative , started in 2010, that aims at demonstrating ambitious up-scaling techniques for large scale distributed computing by carrying out several dimensioning experiments on the Grid’5000 infrastructure, at animating the scientific community around Grid’5000 and at enlarging the Grid’5000 community by helping newcomers to make use of Grid’5000. It is not restricted to INRIA teams.

Publications around Grid'5000 are available as a HAL collection.

Scientific Challenges

Scientific challenges concentrate effort of some partners on well defined issues, such as a particular experiment on Grid’5000. Scientific challenges are expected to be bound in time. However, a scientific challenge may contain several sub-challenges, typically representing various steps toward the ultimate challenges.

List of working groups.

Tools

Some tools have been developped during the Hemera initiative to ease making experiments on Grid'5000. They are related to experiment workflow engines, experiment planification, virtualization, monitoring, storage, and network topology.
