چکیده
This project work aims to develop a dynamic slack management technique, for real-time distributed embedded systems to reduce the total energy consumption in addition to timing, precedence and resource constraints. The Slack Distribution Technique proposed considers a modified Feedback Control Scheduling (FCS) algorithm. This algorithm schedules dependent tasks effectively with precedence and resource constraints. It further minimizes the schedule length and utilizes the available slack to increase the energy efficiency. A fault tolerant mechanism uses a deferred-active-backup scheme increases the schedulability and provides reliability to the system.

A Dynamic Slack Management Technique for Real-Time Distributed Embedded System
This work presents a novel slack management technique, the ’Service Rate Proportionate(SRP) Slack Distribution’, for real-time distributed embedded systems to reduce energy consumption. The proposed SRP based Slack Distribution Technique has been considered with EDF and Rate Based scheduling schemes that are most commonly used with embedded systems. A fault tolerance mechanism has also been inc...
متن کاملEnergy-Aware Synthesis of Fault-Tolerant Schedules for Real-Time Distributed Embedded Systems
In this paper we present an approach to the scheduling and voltage scaling of low-power fault-tolerant hard real-time applications mapped on distributed heterogeneous embedded systems. Processes and messages are statically scheduled, and we use process re-execution for recovering from multiple transient faults. Addressing simultaneously energy and reliability is especially challenging because l...

متن کاملAn Active Replication Scheme that Tolerates Failures in Distributed Embedded Real-Time Systems
Embedded real-time systems are being increasingly used in a major part of critical applications. In these systems, critical real-time constraints must be satisfied even in the presence of failures. In this paper, we present a new method-based on graph transformation that introduces fault-tolerance in building embedded real-time systems. The proposed method targets distributed architecture and c...
