-ABSTRACT
+ The behavior of multicore applications is always a challenge to predict, especially with a new architecture for which no experiment has been performed. With some applications, it is difficult, if not impossible, to build accurate performance models. That is why another solution is to use a simulation tools that allows us to change many parameters of the architecture (network bandwidth, latency, number of processors) and to simulate the execution of such applications.
+
+ In this paper, we focus our attention on two parallel iterative algorithms: one with synchronoous iterations and another one with asynchronous iterations.
