Abstract

This paper presents an energy aware resource allocation approach that benefits from modal nature of hard real-time systems under consideration. The modal nature of considered applications made it possible to decrease the number of active cores consuming high power in certain modes or to switch into core states with lower power consumption, which lead to considerable energy savings while still not violating any of timing constraints. For the considered automotive use case, the number of required cores has been decreased by up to 75% in a particular mode and relatively low amount of data is to be migrated during the mode change. The trade-off between the amount of data to be migrated and energy dissipation in the subsequent state is also analysed.
