The overall energy consumption of all the benchmarks solving the class D instance and
using the proposed frequency selection algorithm is measured
using the equation of the reduced energy consumption, equation
-(\ref{eq:energy}). This model uses the measured dynamic power showed in Table \ref{table:grid5000}

-and the static
+(\ref{eq:energy}). This model uses the measured dynamic power showed in Table \ref{table:grid5000} and the static
power is assumed to be equal to 20\% of the dynamic power. The execution
time is measured for all the benchmarks over these different scenarios.
More energy reduction can be gained when this ratio is big because it pushes the proposed scaling algorithm to select smaller frequencies that decrease the dynamic power consumption. These experiments also showed that the energy
consumption and the execution times of the EP and MG benchmarks do not change significantly over these two
scenarios because there are no or small communications. Contrary to EP and MG, the energy consumptions and the execution times of the rest of the benchmarks vary according to the communication times that are different from one scenario to the other.

asynchronous iterative applications where iterations are not synchronized and communications are overlapped with computations.

number of iterations is not known in advance and depends on
the global convergence of the iterative system.
