Abstract

This paper presents a systematic methodology to implement and validate schemes for energy-efficient task allocation and scheduling in multi-core hard real-time embedded systems. A real-life test bed comprising dual-core Intel T2500 processor with dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) capability and running Linux Fedora 8 based hard real-time scheduling has been developed to accurately benchmark the energy-savings of various proposed scheduling schemes and the experience from implementation is summarized to serve as potential guidelines for other researchers and practitioners.

Design of a hard real-time multi-core testbed for energy measurement

This paper presents a systematic methodology for designing a hard real-time multi-core testbed to validate and benchmark various rate monotonic scheduling (RMS)-based task allocation and scheduling schemes in energy consumption. The hard real-time multi-...
Energy-Aware Fixed-Priority Multi-core Scheduling for Real-Time Systems
RTCSA '11: Proceedings of the 2011 IEEE17th International Conference on Embedded and Real-Time Computing Systems and Applications - Volume 01

Multi-core processors are becoming the dominant choice due to energy and thermal considerations, which also applies to embedded and real-time systems. While fixed-priority scheduling with task-splitting in real-time systems are widely applied, current ...

CASES '05: Proceedings of the 2005 international conference on Compilers, architectures and synthesis for embedded systems

Embedded systems often have severe power and energy constraints. Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is a mechanism by which energy consumption may be reduced. In this paper, we implement a dynamic voltage scaling based scheduler in the eCos operating system ...
