-Green computing emphasizes the importance of energy conservation, minimizing the negative impact 
-on the environment while achieving high performance and minimizing operating costs. So, energy reduction 
-process in a high performance clusters it can be archived using dynamic voltage and frequency 
-scaling (DVFS) technique, through reducing the frequency of a CPU. Using DVFS to lower levels 
-result in a high increase in performance degradation ratio. Therefore selecting the best frequencies 
-must give the best possible tradeoff between the energy and the performance of parallel program.
-
-In this paper we present a new online heterogeneous scaling algorithm that selects the best vector 
-of frequency scaling factors. These factors give the best tradeoff between the energy saving and the
-performance degradation. The algorithm has small overhead and works without training and profiling.
-We developed a new energy model for distributed iterative application running on heterogeneous cluster. 
-The proposed algorithm experimented  on Simgrid simulator that applying the NAS parallel benchmarks.
-It reduces the energy consumption up to 35\% while limits the performance degradation as much as possible.
+Computing platforms are consuming more and more energy due to the increase of the number of nodes composing them. To minimize the operating costs of these platforms many techniques have been used. Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) is one of them, it reduces the frequency of a CPU to lower its energy consumption. However, lowering the frequency of a CPU might increase the execution time of an application running on that processor. Therefore, the frequency that gives the best  tradeoff between the energy consumption and the performance of an application must be selected.

 \section{Introduction}
 \label{sec.intro}

-Modern processors continue increasing in performance, 
-the CPUs constructors are competing to achieve maximum number 
-of floating point operations per second (FLOPS). 
-Thus, the energy consumption and the heat dissipation are increased 
-drastically according to this increase. Because the number of FLOPS 
-is more related to the power consumption of a CPU
-~\cite{Luley_Energy.efficiency.evaluation.and.benchmarking}.  
-As an example of the most power hungry cluster, Tianhe-2 became in 
-the top of the Top500 list in June 2014 \cite{TOP500_Supercomputers_Sites}. 
-It has more than 3 millions of cores and consumed more than 17.8 megawatts. 
+The need for more computing power is continually increasing. To partially satisfy this need, most supercomputers constructors just put more computing nodes in their platform. The resulting platform might achieve higher floating point operations per second (FLOPS), but the energy consumption and the heat dissipation are also increased. As an example, the chinese supercomputer Tianhe-2 had the highest FLOPS in November 2014 according to the Top500 list \cite{TOP500_Supercomputers_Sites}.  However, it was also the  most power hungry platform with its over 3 millions cores consuming around 17.8 megawatts.

 Moreover, according to the U.S. annual energy outlook 2014 
 \cite{U.S_Annual.Energy.Outlook.2014}, the price of energy for 1 megawatt-hour 
 was approximately equal to \$70.

-Therefore, we can consider the price of the energy consumption for the 
-Tianhe-2 platform is approximately more than \$10 millions  for 
-one year. For this reason, the heterogeneous clusters must be offer more 
-energy efficiency due to the increase in the energy cost and the environment 
-influences. Therefore, a green computing clusters with maximum number of 
-FLOPS per watt are required nowadays. For example, the GSIC center of Tokyo,

-This heterogeneous platform has more than four thousand of  MFLOPS per watt. Dynamic 
-voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) is a process used widely to reduce the energy 
-consumption of the processor. In heterogeneous clusters enabled DVFS, many researchers 
-used DVFS  in a different ways. DVFS can be minimized the energy consumption 
-but it leads to a disadvantage due to the increase in performance degradation. 
-Therefore,  researchers used different optimization strategies to overcame 
-this problem. The best tradeoff relation between the energy reduction and 
-performance degradation ratio is became a key challenges in a heterogeneous 
-platforms. In this paper we are propose a heterogeneous scaling algorithm  
-that selects the optimal vector of the frequency scaling factors for distributed 
-iterative application, producing maximum energy reduction against minimum 
-performance degradation ratio simultaneously. The algorithm has very small 
-overhead, works online and not needs for any training or profiling.  
+This heterogeneous platform executes more than four  GFLOPS per watt.
+
+ Besides hardware improvements, there are many software techniques to lower the energy consumption of these platforms, such as scheduling, DVFS, ... DVFS is a widely  used process to reduce the energy 
+consumption of a processor by lowering its frequency. \textbf{put a reference to DVFS} However, it also the reduces the number of FLOPS executed by the processor which might increase the execution time of the application running over that processor.
+Therefore,  researchers used different optimization strategies to select the frequency that gives the best tradeoff   between the energy reduction and 
+performance degradation ratio.
+\textbf{you should talk about the first paper here and say that the algorithm was applied to a homogeneous platform then define what is a heterogeneous platform, you can take it from the firdt paragraph in section 3 }
+
+In this paper, a frequency selecting algorithm is proposed. It  selects the vector of frequencies for a heterogeneous platform that runs a message passing iterative application,  that gives the maximum energy reduction and minimum 
+performance degradation ratio simultaneously. The algorithm has a very small
