Leakage-aware intra-task dynamic voltage scaling technique for energy reduction in real-time embedded systems

In this paper, we propose an intra-task dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) scheduling technique for energy reduction of hard real-time systems. Different from previous works, we incorporate the leakage-temperature dependency in our system model and proposes a novel intra-task DVS scheduling technique to reduce the overall energy consumption. The experimental result shows that significant energy reduction is achieved using the proposed approach in comparison to the existing approach.
