Abstract

Energy consumption is a critical issue in parallel and distributed embedded systems. We present a novel algorithm for energy efficient scheduling of Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) based applications on Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) enabled systems. Experimental results show that our algorithm provides near optimal solutions for energy minimization with considerably smaller computational time and memory requirements compared to an existing algorithm that provides near optimal solutions.
