\textbf{Step 5}: Conduct an extensive and comprehensive testings
within these configurations by varying the key parameters, especially
In the scope of this paper, our first objective is to analyze when the Krylov
two-stage method has better performance than the classical GMRES method. With a synchronous iterative method, better performance means a
smaller number of iterations and execution time before reaching the convergence.
-For a systematic study, the experiments should figure out that, for various
-grid parameters values, the simulator will confirm Multisplitting method better performance compared to classical GMRES, particularly on poor and slow networks.

Figure~\ref{fig:01} shows, for all grid configurations and a given matrix size, a non-variation in the number of iterations for the classical GMRES algorithm, which is not the case of the Krylov two-stage algorithm.

The execution times between the two algorithms is significant with different
grid architectures, even with the same number of processors (for example, 2 $\times$ 16
and 4 $\times 8$). We can observe a better sensitivity of the Krylov multisplitting method

Figure~\ref{fig:02} shows that end users will reduce the execution time
for both algorithms when using a grid architecture like 4 $\times$ 16 or 8 $\times$ 8: the reduction factor is around $2$. The results depict also that when
the network speed drops down (variation of 12.5\%), the difference between the two Multisplitting algorithms execution times can reach more than 25\%.
