Designing energy-efficient scheduling algorithms on heterogeneous distributed systems is increasingly becoming the focus of research. State-of-the-art works have studied scheduling by combining dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) technology and turning off the appropriate processors to reduce dynamic and static energy consumptions. However, the methods for turning off processors are ineffective. In this study, we propose a novel method to assign priorities to processors for facilitating effective selection of turned-on processors to decrease static energy consumption. An energy-efficient scheduling algorithm based on bisection (ESAB) is proposed on this basis, and this algorithm directly turns on the most energy-efficient processors depending on the idea of bisection to reduce static energy consumption while dynamic energy consumption is decreased by using DVFS technology. Experiments are …
