Abstract

Efficient application scheduling with low energy consumption is critical for achieving high performance in heterogeneous computing system (HCS). One of the classical approaches is the combination of heuristics and Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS). We propose a new schedule scheme which concentrates on the energy consumption of supply voltage’s varying and a modified algorithm which analyses the extra energy cost by voltage switches and the energy saving by working at a lower level to get a better energy performance of the whole system. The performance comparison study shows that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing scheduling algorithms.
