Abstract :
This paper deals with the ZETA framework capabilities to optimize the energy requirements of real-time embedded systems. Since the system´s functionality is partitioned into tasks, the embedded computer becomes power aware via power aware tasks. Each task has an individual execution rate. Tasks are clustered on the base of a common clock rate to decline the speed switching overhead.
