SimGrid is a framework designed for developing simulators of distributed applications targeting distributed platforms, used to prototype, evaluate and compare relevant platform configurations, system designs, and algorithmic approaches. It aims to provide ready to use models and APIs to simulate popular distributed computing platforms.

As an open-source project, SimGrid benefits mainly from community contributions and provides a variety of documentation and tutorials to ease new users in the utilization of this software.
