paper, we show that it is interesting to use SimGrid to simulate the behaviors
of asynchronous iterative algorithms. For that, we compare the behaviour of a
synchronous GMRES algorithm with an asynchronous multisplitting one with
-simulations in which we choose some parameters. Both codes are real MPI
-codes. Simulations allow us to see when the multisplitting algorithm can be more
+simulations which let us easily choose some parameters. Both codes are real MPI
+codes ans simulations allow us to see when the asynchronous multisplitting algorithm can be more
efficient than the GMRES one to solve a 3D Poisson problem.
reach the following three objectives:
\begin{enumerate}
-\item To have a flexible configurable execution platform resolving the
-hard exercise to access to very limited but so solicited physical
-resources;
+\item To have a flexible configurable execution platform that allows us to
+ simulate asynchronous iterative algorithm for which execution of all parts of
+ the code is necessary. Using simulations before real execution is a nice
+ solution to detect the scalability problems.
+
\item to ensure the algorithm convergence with a reasonable time and
iteration number ;
\item and finally and more importantly, to find the correct combination
