Energy efficient operation of any portable devices ultimately increases the lifetime of the devices between every battery charging. The multi-core processors are used widely today for increasing the performance of computing. Efficient scheduling of the real-time tasks becomes necessary to effectively utilize all the cores in a multi-core processor. This work focuses on energy efficient task scheduling of the real-time tasks in homogenous multi-core processor environment. To increase the utilization and reduce the energy consumption of the each core, Simulated Annealing based approach is used to slowly converge to a better solution.

Abstract
Energy efficient operation of any portable devices ultimately increases the lifetime of the devices between every battery charging. The multi-core processors are used widely today for increasing the performance of computing. Efficient scheduling of the real-time tasks becomes necessary to effectively utilize all the cores in a multi-core processor. This work focuses on energy efficient task scheduling of the real-time tasks in homogenous multi-core processor environment. To increase the utilization and reduce the energy consumption of the each core, Simulated Annealing based approach is used to slowly converge to a better solution.
Author Keywords: Non-preemptive scheduling. Simulated Annealing, Rate Monotonic Scheduling, Slack reduction.
