Modern system-on-chip (SoC) design shows a clear trend toward integration of multiple
processor cores on a single chip. Designing a multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSOC) …

The emphasis on processors that are both low power and high performance has resulted in
the incorporation of dynamic voltage scaling into processor designs. This feature allows one …

Many embedded systems operate under severe power and energy constraints. Voltage
clock scaling is one mechanism by which energy consumption may be reduced; it is based …

Combining high performance with low power consumption is becoming one of the primary
objectives of processor designs. Instead of relying just on sleep mode for conserving power …

Power-aware systems are those that must make the best use of available power. They
subsume traditional low-power systems in that they must not only minimize power when the …

Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is a powerful technique to reduce power dissipation in
embedded systems. Some efficient DVS algorithms have been recently proposed for the …

As energy consumption has become a majorconstraint in current system design, it is
essential to look beyond the traditional low-power circuit and architectural optimizations …

We propose an intra-task voltage scheduling algorithm for low-energy hard real-time
applications. Based on a static timing analysis technique, the proposed algorithm controls …

Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling of the CPU has been identified as one of the most
effective ways to reduce energy consumption of a program. This paper discusses a …

Many portable systems deploy operating systems (OS) to support versatile functionality and
to manage resources, including power. This paper presents a new approach for using OS to …
