ABSTRACT
Nowadays, scientists are interested in using computer grids to run their specific domain applications. Nevertheless the difficulty for non expert in computer science to run those applications on a high number of nodes discourages them. This paper deals with the deployment and the management of an electromagnetic simulator on a computer grid, by using the TUNe autonomic middleware. First, we describe the simulator and how to make it work with TUNe. Then, we measure TUNe's performance during specific phases: deployment, starting and undeployment. Moreover, some capabilities like automatic repair of applications in case of failure are shown.
