With the increasing computational demands of applications, the research of energy-efficient
heterogeneous multiprocessor scheduling is becoming more and more important. The
problem can be addressed as allocating tasks to the right cores and setting the appropriate
operating frequencies. In this paper, we present a task allocation algorithm for a single-ISA
big. LITTLE architecture which consists of two different types of cores: high-performance
core and energy-efficient core. Based on the execution variance of two types of cores, a …
