all clusters are interconnected by a virtual unidirectional ring network (see
Figure~\ref{fig:4.1}). During the resolution, a Boolean token circulates around
the virtual ring from a master processor to another until the global convergence
- is achieved. So starting from the cluster with rank 1, each master processor $i$
+ is achieved. So starting from the cluster with rank 1, each master processor $\ell$
sets the token to \textit{True} if the local convergence is achieved or to
- \textit{False} otherwise, and sends it to master processor $i+1$. Finally, the
+ \textit{False} otherwise, and sends it to master processor $\ell+1$. Finally, the
global convergence is detected when the master of cluster 1 receives from the
master of cluster $L$ a token set to \textit{True}. In this case, the master of
cluster 1 broadcasts a stop message to masters of other clusters. In this work,

\section{Conclusion}
-The experimental results on executing a parallel iterative algorithm in
-asynchronous mode on an environment simulating a large scale of virtual
-computers organized with interconnected clusters have been presented.
+The simulation of the execution of parallel asynchronous iterative algorithms on large scale clusters has been presented.
Our work has demonstrated that using such a simulation tool allow us to
reach the following three objectives:
