Abstract: P-GRADE development and run-time environment provides high-level graphical support to develop scientific applications and to execute them efficiently on various platforms. This paper gives an overview on the parallelisation of two simulator algorithms; for chemical reaction-diffusion systems and for accidental release of chemical (or radioactive) substances. Applying the same user environment we present our experiences regarding the execution of these chemistry applications on dedicated and non-dedicated clusters, and in different grid environments.
Keywords: programming environment; grid computing; clusters; computational chemistry; chemical reaction-diffusion; chemical substances; radioactive substances; accidental release.
