Alchemist simulation batches distribution

abstract

Alchemist is an open-source and general-purpose simulator developed in the University of Bologna. Simulation can be executed by writing their configurations in YAML. Sometimes it may be useful to execute the same configuration with different parameters, called variables. The set of simulation differing by their variables constitute a batch. Alchemist provides a way to launch a simulation batch sequentially. The aim of this project is to implement in Alchemist a batch distribution mechanism in order to parallelize batch simulations computation and reduce the time spent in executing the batch.
