초록

본 논문은 실시간 임베디드 OS인 TMO-eCos의 데드라인 기반 CPU 저전력 관리 기법을 다루고 있다. 해당 저전력 관리 기법은 경성 실시간 시스템인 TMO 시스템을 위한 태스크 순차화 기법에서 도출된 스케줄링 시나리오를 사용한다. 본 연구팀에서 개발한 스케줄링 사전 분석기는 주기적으로 동작하는 태스크의 주기, 데드라인, WCET를 기반으로 오프라인 분석을 실시한다. 최종적으로 TMO-eCos 커널은 CPU의 전력 소모를 줄이기 위하여 주기적인 태스크의 데드라인을 위반하지 않는 범위에서 CPU의 속도를 조절하여 시스템에서 사용하는 소비전력은 줄이게 된다. 본 논문은 이와 같은 과정과 실제 실험결과를 기술한다.

This paper presents the deadline driven CPU-Power management scheme for the Real-Time Embedded OS: named TMO-eCos. It used the scheduling scenarios generated by a task serialization technique for hard real- time TMO system. The serializer does a off-line analysis at design time with period, deadline and WCET of periodic tasks. Finally, TMO-eCos kernel controls the CPU speed to save the power consumption under the condition that periodic tasks do not violate deadlines. As a result, the system shows a reasonable amount of power saving. This paper presents all of these processes and test results.
