Abstract

In this paper, we present the developments realized in the Ouragan project around the parallelization of a Matlab-like tool called Scilab. These developments use high-performance numerical libraries and different approaches based either on the duplication of Scilab processes or on computational servers. This tool, Scilab, allows users to perform high-level operations on distributed matrices in a metacomputing environment. We also present performance results on different architectures.
