Simulation software is widely used in both industry and academia. However, large scale simulation require extensive amount of resources. Cloud computing offers the potential for scalable, on-demand access to resources that can be used to speed up simulation and make it available from custom web interfaces.

Sessions contributions
Fermilab neutrino experimental analysis and simulation was required to run mostly at Fermilab due to access to a NAS server for their code and data. Fermilab staff worked with the experimenters to move their application to the CVMFS distribution and then run their application on several distributed grid sites, on FermiCloud, and on Amazon AWS. We found both internal and commercial cloud...
