| Abstract | Embedded systems have limited energy resources. Hence, they should conserve these resources to extend their period of operation. Recently, dynamic frequency scaling (DFS) and dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) have been added to a various embedded processors as a means to increase battery life. A number of scheduling techniques have been developed to exploit DFS and DVS for real-time systems to reduce energy consumption. These techniques exploit idle and slack time of a schedule. Idle time can be consumed by lowering the processor frequency of selected tasks while slack time allows later tasks to execute at lower frequencies with reduced voltage demands.Our work delivers energy savings beyond the level of prior work. We enhance the earliest-deadline first (EDF) scheduling to exploit slack time generated by the invocation of the task at multiple frequency levels within the same invocation. The technique relies strictly on operating system support within the scheduler to implement the approach. Early scaling at a low frequency, determined by a feedback mechanism and facilitated by a slack-passing scheme, capitalizes on high probabilities of a task to finish its execution without utilizing its worst-case execution budget. If a task does not complete at a certain point in time within its low frequency range, the remainder of it continues to execute at a higher frequency. Our experiments demonstrate that the resulting energy savings exceed those of previously published work by up to 33%. In addition, our method only adds a constant complexity at each scheduling point, which has not been achieved by prior work, to the best of our knowledge. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
