Determining optimal processor speeds for periodic real-time tasks with different power characteristics
Hakan Aydın, Rami Melhem, Daniel Mossé, Pedro Mejía-Álvarez · 2002
In this paper, we provide an efficient solution for periodic real-time tasks with (potentially) different power consumption characteristics. We show that a task T/sub i/ can run at a constant speed S/sub i/ at every instance without hurting optimality. We sketch an O(n/sup 2/ log n) algorithm to compute the optimal S/sub i/ values. We also prove that the EDF (Earliest Deadline First) scheduling policy can be used to obtain a feasible schedule with these optimal speed values.
