Figure~\ref{fig:st_freq}, the nodes are sorted by their computing power in
ascending order and the frequencies of the faster nodes are scaled down
according to the computed initial frequency scaling factors. The resulting new
-frequencies are colored in blue in Figure~\ref{fig:st_freq}. This set of
+frequencies are highlighted in Figure~\ref{fig:st_freq}. This set of
frequencies can be considered as a higher bound for the search space of the
optimal vector of frequencies because selecting frequency scaling factors higher
than the higher bound will not improve the performance of the application and it
