Abstract
The goal of this paper is to present ANDES, a language for modelling q uantitative behaviour of parallel programs. ANDES is employed in the A LPES environment. From an ANDES quantitative model, a parallel synthet ic program is generated. This synthetic program is executed on a real distributed memory parallel computer. Some performance indices are obt ained from this execution. Currently, mapping strategies are being eva luated using this approach. The ALPES environment is a research domain in the APACHE project.
