    Approaches for Cloudification of Complex High Performance Simulation Systems
    (Neuchâtel : Université de Neuchâtel, 2017) ;
    Scientific computing is often associated with ever-increasing need for computer resources to conduct experiments, simulations and gain outcomes in a reasonable time frame. While local infrastructures could hold substantial computing power and capabilities, researchers may still reach the limit of available resources. With continuously increasing need for higher computing power, one of the solutions could be to offload certain resource-intensive applications to a cloud environment with resources available on-demand. In this thesis, we will address the problem of migrating MPI-based scientific applications to clouds. Specifically, we will concentrate on scientific simulators, which implement the iterative Monte Carlo method. To tackle the identified problem, we will (a) overview high performance and cloud computing domains, (b) analyze existing simulation problem types, (c) introduce an example Monte Carlo simulator, (d) present two cloudification methodologies, (e) apply the methodologies to the example simulator, and (f) evaluate the potential application of methodologies in a real case study.
