  2. For real-time computing systems, energy efficiency, Quality of Service, and fault tolerance are among the major design concerns. In this work, we study the problem of reliable and energy-aware fixed-priority (m,k)-deadlines enforcement with standby-sparing. The standby-sparing systems adopt a primary processor and a spare processor to provide fault tolerance for both permanent and transient faults. In order to reduce energy consumption for such kind of systems, we proposed a novel scheduling scheme under the QoS constraint of (m,k)- deadlines. The evaluation results demonstrate that our proposed approach significantly outperformed the previous research in energy conservation while assuring (m,k)-deadlines and fault tolerance for real-time systems.

  4. For real-time computing systems, energy efficiency and reliability are two primary design concerns. In this research work, we study the problem of enhanced energy-aware standbysparing for fixed-priority (FP) hard real-time systems under reliability requirement. The standby-sparing system adopts a primary processor and a spare processor to provide fault tolerance for both permanent and transient faults. In order to keep the energy consumption for such kind of systems under control, we explore enhanced fixed-priority scheduling schemes to minimize the overlapped concurrent executions of the workloads on the primary processor and on the spare processor, enabling energy savings. Moreover, efficient online scheduling techniques are under development to boost the energy savings during runtime while preserving the system reliability.
