Abstract— In the sporadic task model, a task is characterized by three parameters — an execution requirement, a relative deadline, and a period parameter — and has the interp...
Energy reduction is critical to increase the mobility and to extend the mission period in the development of today’s pervasive computing systems. On the other hand, however, ene...
Abstract— Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is a promising technique for battery-powered systems to conserve energy consumption. Most existing DVS algorithms assume information about...
