Abstract

Energy-aware high-performance computing is becoming a challenging facet for streaming applications at edge devices in Internet-of-Things (IoT) due to the high computational complexity involved. Therefore, the number of processors has increased significantly on the multiprocessor system subsequently, Voltage Frequency Island (VFI) recently adopted for an effective energy management mechanism in the large scale multiprocessor chip designs. In this paper, energy-aware scheduling of real-time streaming applications on edge-devices is investigated. First, an innovative re-timing based technique is developed to transform the dependent workload into an independent task model to avail resources and the wasted slack in the processors with a possible minimal prologue. Moreover, unlike the existing population-based optimization algorithms, a novel population-based algorithm, ARSH-FATI is proposed that can dynamically switch between explorative and exploitative search modes at run-time for performance trade-off. Finally, a communication contention-aware Earliest Edge Consistent Deadline First (EECDF) scheduling algorithm is presented. Our static scheduler ARHS-FATI collectively performs task mapping and ordering. Consequently, its performance is superior to the existing state-of-the-art approach proposed for homogeneous VFI based MPSoCs.
