In the process of developping grid applications, people need to often evaluate the robustness of their work. Two common approaches are, simulation where one can evaluates his software and predict behaviors under conditions usually unachievable in a laboratory experiment and experimentation where the actual application is launched on an actual grid. However simulation could ignore unpredictable behaviors due to the abstraction done and experimation does not guarantee a controlled and reproducible environment.
