Abstract
Marine-target impact cratering simulation plays an important role in the study of past martian seas. In order to develop profiles for future exploration missions and to understand the morphologies for future investigations, a large number of simulations have to be done. This paper presents some experimental results obtained with the execution of impact cratering simulations in a Globus-based Grid environment through the GridWay framework. Some performance metrics are presented to demonstrate the suitability of this platform for running High Throughput Computing applications.
