In future works, we plan to extend our experimentations to larger scale platforms by increasing the number of computing cores and the number of clusters.
-We will also have to increase the size of the input problem which will require the use of a more powerful simulation platform. At last, we expect to compare our simulation results to real execution results on real architectures in order to experimentally validate our study.
