Abstract

This paper describes our initial experiences of running simple blood-clot simulations on Grid infrastructure. The individual simulations are concurrent process networks programmed in occampi, containing over ten thousand parallel processes. The Minimum intrusion Grid (MiG) infrastructure is used to distribute program execution and result collection automatically across a set of processing nodes.
