Although this model was built for parallel architectures, it can be adapted to distributed architectures by taking into account the communications. The primary contribution of this paper is presenting a new online scaling factor selection method which has the following characteristics : \begin{enumerate} -\item Based on Rauber's analytical model to predict the energy consumption and the execution time of the application with different frequency gears. +\item Based on Rauber and Rünger analytical model to predict the energy consumption and the execution time of the application with different frequency gears. \item Selects the frequency scaling factor for simultaneously optimizing energy reduction and maintaining performance. \item Well adapted to distributed architectures because it takes into account the communication time. \item Well adapted to distributed applications with imbalanced tasks. @@ -241,7 +241,7 @@ new frequency value~(\emph {P-state}) in the governor. The CPU governor is an interface driver supplied by the operating system's kernel to lower a core's frequency. This factor reduces quadratically the dynamic power which may cause degradation in performance and thus, the increase of the static energy because the execution time is increased~\cite{36}. If the tasks are sorted according to their execution times before scaling in a descending order, the total energy consumption model for a parallel -homogeneous platform, as presented by Rauber et al.~\cite{3}, can be written as a function of the scaling factor \emph S, as in EQ~(\ref{eq:energy}). +homogeneous platform, as presented by Rauber and Rünger~\cite{3}, can be written as a function of the scaling factor \emph S, as in EQ~(\ref{eq:energy}). \begin{equation} \label{eq:energy} @@ -494,7 +494,7 @@ respectively.
