+\subsection{The results of using different static power consumption scenarios}
+\label{sec.pow_sen}
+\textcolor{blue}{
+The static power consumption for one core is the leakage power
+consumption when it is idle. The measured static power of the node,
+as in section \ref{sec.grid5000}, had a collection of power values such as
+all cores static powers and the power consumptions of the other devices. Furthermore, the static power for one core is hard to measured precisely. On the other hand, the core has consumed the static power during
+the communication and computation times. However, the static power consumption becomes more important when the execution time is
+increased using DVFS. Therefore, the objective of this section is to verify the ability of the proposed
+scaling algorithm to select the best frequencies when the static power consumption is changing.
+All the results obtained in the previous sections depend on the measured dynamic power
+consumptions as in table \ref{table:grid5000}. Moreover, the static power consumption for one core is represented by 20\% of the measured dynamic power consumption.
+This assumption is extended in this section to taking into account other ratios for the static power consumption.
+In addition to the previous ratio of the static power consumption, two other static power ratios are used, which are 10\% and 30\% of the measured dynamic power of the core.
+As a result, all of these static power scenarios is denoted as follow:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item 10\% of static power scenario
+\item 20\% of static power scenario
+\item 30\% of static power scenario
+\end{itemize}
+The NAS parallel benchmarks, class D, are executed over Nancy site.
+The number of computing nodes used is 16 nodes distributed between three cluster, which are Graphite, Graphene and Griffon. The NAS benchmarks rerun
+with these two new static power scenarios over one site scenario
+using one core per node. }

+The energy saving percentages of NAS benchmarks with these three static power scenarios are presented
+in figure \ref{fig:eng_sen}. This figure shows that 10\% of static power scenario
+gives the biggest energy saving percentage comparing to 20\% and 30\% static power
+scenarios. The smaller ratio of the static power consumption makes the proposed
+scaling algorithm to select smaller frequencies, bigger scaling factors.
+These smaller frequencies has reduced the dynamic energy consumption and thus the
+overall energy consumption is decreased.
+The energy saving percentages of 30\% static power scenario is the smallest between the other scenarios, because of the scaling algorithm selects bigger frequencies, smaller scaling factors, that increased the energy consumption. For example, figure \ref{fig:fre-pow}, illustrates that the proposed scaling algorithm is proportionally selected the best frequency scaling factors according to the static power consumption ratio being used.
+Furthermore, the proposed scaling algorithm tries to limit selecting smaller frequencies, which increased the execution time. Hence, the increase in the execution time is relatively increased the static energy consumption.
+The performance degradation percentages are presented in the figure \ref{fig:per-pow},
+the 30\% of static power scenario had less performance degradation percentage. This because
+bigger frequencies was selected due to the big ratio in the static power consumption.
+The inverse happens in the 20\% and 30\% scenarios, the scaling algorithm is selecting
+smaller frequencies, bigger scaling factors, according to the ratio of the static power.
+The tradeoff distance percentage for the NAS benchmarks with these three static power scenarios
+are presented in the figure \ref{fig:dist}. It shows that the tradeoff
+distance percentage is the best when the 10\% of static power scenario is used, and this percentage
+is decreased for the other two scenarios propositionally to their static power ratios.
+In EP benchmark, the results of energy saving, performance degradation and tradeoff
+distance are showed small differences when the these static power scenarios were used.
+The absent of the communications in this benchmark made the proposed scaling algorithm to select equivalent frequencies even if the static power values are different. While, the
+inverse has been shown for the rest of the benchmarks, which have different communication times
+that increased the static energy consumption proportionally. Therefore, the scaling algorithm relatively selects
+different frequencies for each benchmark when these static power scenarios are used. }

+\subsection{The comparison of the proposed frequencies selecting algorithm }
+\label{sec.compare_EDP}
+\textcolor{blue}{
+The tradeoff between the energy consumption and the performance of the parallel
+applications had significant importance in the domain of the research.
+Many researchers, \cite{EDP_for_multi_processors,Energy_aware_application_scheduling,Exploring_Energy_Performance_TradeOffs},
+have optimized the tradeoff between the energy and the performance using the well known energy and delay product, $EDP=energy \times delay$.
+This model is also used by Spiliopoulos et al. algorithm \cite{Spiliopoulos_Green.governors.Adaptive.DVFS},
+the objective is to select the frequencies that minimized EDP product for the multi-cores
+architecture when DVFS is used. Moreover, their algorithm is applied online, which synchronously optimized the energy consumption
+and the execution time. Both energy consumption and execution time of a processor are predicted by the their algorithm.
+In this section the proposed frequencies selection algorithm, called Maxdist is compared with Spiliopoulos et al. algorithm, called EDP.
+To make both of the algorithms follow the same direction and fairly comparing them, the same energy model, equation \ref{eq:energy} and
+the execution time model, equation \ref{eq:perf}, are used in the prediction process to select the best vector of the frequencies.
+In contrast, the proposed algorithm starts the search space from the lower bound computed as in equation the \ref{eq:Fint}. Also, the algorithm
+stops the search process when it is reached to the lower bound as mentioned before. In the same way, the EDP algorithm is developed to start from the
+same upper bound used in Maxdist algorithm, and it stops the search process when a minimum available frequencies is reached.
+Finally, the resulting EDP algorithm is an exhaustive search algorithm that test all possible frequencies, starting from the initial frequencies,
+and selecting those minimized the EDP product.
+Both algorithms were applied to NAS benchmarks, class D, over 16 nodes selected from grid'5000 clusters.
+The participating computing nodes are distributed between two sites and one site to have two different scenarios that used in the section \ref{sec.res}.
+The experimental results: the energy saving, performance degradation and tradeoff distance percentages are
+presented in the figures \ref{fig:edp-eng}, \ref{fig:edp-perf} and \ref{fig:edp-dist} respectively.

+\end{figure}
+As shown form these figures, the proposed frequencies selection algorithm, Maxdist, outperform the EDP algorithm in term of energy and performance for all of the benchmarks executed over the two scenarios.
+Generally, the proposed algorithm gives better results for all benchmarks because it is
+optimized the distance between the energy saving and the performance degradation in the same time.
+Moreover, the proposed scaling algorithm gives the same weight for these two metrics.
+Whereas, the EDP algorithm gives some times negative tradeoff values for some benchmarks in the two sites scenarios.
+These negative tradeoff values mean that the performance degradation percentage is higher than energy saving percentage.
+The higher positive value of the tradeoff distance percentage mean that the energy saving percentage is much higher than the performance degradation percentage.
+The time complexity of both Maxdist and EDP algorithms are $O(N \cdot M \cdot F)$ and
+$O(N \cdot M \cdot F^2)$ respectively. Where $N$ is the number of the clusters, $M$ is the number of nodes and $F$ is the
+maximum number of available frequencies. The proposed algorithm, Maxdist, has selected the best frequencies in a small execution time,
+on average is equal to 0.01 $ms$, when it is executed over 32 nodes distributed between Nancy and Lyon sites.
+While the EDP algorithm was slower than Maxdist algorithm by ten times over the same number of nodes and same distribution, its execution time on average
+is equal to 0.1 $ms$.
