 Almost of the software applications  are traditionally programmed as a sequential programs according to the Von Neumann report in 1993 \cite{ref50}. The structure of the 
 program code is understandable by the human brain as a series of instructions that execute one after the other. From many years until a short time, the users of the sequential applications are moving their thinking   towards that these applications must run faster with each new generation of microprocessors. This idea is no longer valid nowadays, because the recent release of the microprocessors have many computing units embedded in one chip and these programs are only run over one computing unit sequentially.
 Consequently, the traditional applications not have improved their performance a lot over the new architectures, whereas the new applications run faster over them in a parallel. The parallel application is executed over  all the available  computing  units at the same time to improve its performance. Furthermore, the concurrency revolution has been referred to the drastically improvement in the performance of the new applications side by side to  the new parallel architectures \cite{ref51}. Therefore, parallel applications and parallel architectures are closely tied together. It is hard to think about any of a parallel applications without thinking of the parallel hardware that executing them.
+For example, the energy consumption of the parallel system mainly depends on both of the parallel application and the parallel architecture executing this application. Indeed, the energy consumption model or any measurement system depends on many specifications, some of them are concerting  the parallel platform such as the frequency of the processor, power consumption of the processor and  communication model.  The others are concerting the parallel application such as the computation and communication times of the application.

 As a result, this chapter is aimed to give a brief overview for a parallel hardware architectures,  parallel iterative applications and the energy model from the other authors used to measure the energy consumption of these applications. 
 The reminder of this chapter is organized as follows: section \ref{ch1:2}  is  devoted 
 to describe the types of  parallelism and the types of the parallel platforms. It is also gives some information about the parallel programming models.  Section \ref{ch1:3} explains both the synchronous and asynchronous parallel iterative methods and comparing them. Section \ref{ch1:4}, presents the well accepted energy model from the state of the art that can be used to measure the energy consumption of the parallel iterative applications when changing the frequency of the processor.

 \section{Conclusion}
 \label{ch1:5}
-In this chapter, we have presented in general different types of parallelism levels that can be implemented in a software and hardware techniques. Furthermore, the types of the parallel architectures are demonstrated and classified according to how the computing units are connected to a memory model. 
-The two parallel systems  are described,  which are the shared and distributed platforms. Depending on these two types, we have categorized the parallel programming models. The parallel iterative methods are explained and their two types, the synchronous and asynchronous iterative methods, are described. The synchronous iterative methods are well implemented over local homogeneous cluster with a high speed network link, while the asynchronous iterative methods are more conventional to implement over the distributed heterogeneous clusters. 
-Consequently, running these two types of the parallel iterative methods over distributed platforms are interested in this work. The energy consumption model for  measuring the energy consumption of the parallel applications from the related literature is  described. This model  cannot be used for all types of parallel architectures. It is assumed to measure the dynamic power during both communication and computation times, while the processor involved remains idle during the communication times and  only consumes the static power. Moreover, it is not well adapted to the heterogeneous architectures when there are different
-types of the processors, which are consumed different dynamic and static powers.
