Abstract :
FAFNER2 is a 3D code that simulates by Monte Carlo methods the Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) technology. The original version was implemented for shared memory computers with MIPS proccesors, so an update to be executed by means of MPI on standard Linux clusters has been carried out as well as a new version to be run on Grid. To do the latest, a serial version has also been developed, together with a Java DRMAA program that is submitted by the GridWay metascheduler. As a result, two new improved versions of the code (HPC and Grid) are available.
