Abstract	A program's behavior is always tightly related with the computing environment where it runs, especially for parallel programs running in grid. Debugging tries to locate the reason for incorrect program behavior by analyzing the states, which happen during a program's execution. In order to allow cyclic debugging, re-execution mechanisms are used most frequently. The dynamic characteristics of grid will hinder re-execution to work, because the behavior of a program will be various according to the current configuration of execution environment. By modeling grid environments with graphics, this paper proposes the metric to evaluate the similarity between grid applications execution environments. The GA based resource selection algorithm is presented to construct similar execution environments in grids. A serial of experiments shows that the similarity metrics is appropriate.
