Two kinds of tools are necessary to optimise the use of available resources by the execution of parallel programs on distributed memory systems: mapping and load balancing tools. A mapping tool is well suited for programs whose behaviour is predictable while for many "real applications", it needs to be complemented by a dynamic load balancing tool. Both tools are currently investigated to be included in the programming environment designed by the SEPP COPERNICUS project. I.
