Abstract

The emerging of cloud computing has made it possible to deploy scientific applications in which users can manage the computational capacity on demand. In order to provide for the nanodevice researches the flexibility they require, we present in this paper the Flexible Cluster Manager (FCM), a tool that allows them to deploy Sentaurus TCAD virtual clusters on demand on cloud infrastructures by means of a web interface. The virtual clusters provided by FCM can be resized on-line, so adapting the computational capacity to the requirements of the researchers, which increase the reuse ratio of the computing resources. It is also possible to use it with other commercial or in-house simulator tools.
