Abstract:
This paper describes a scheduler for an 8-bit microcontroller which takes advantage of power saving features such as frequency scaling and low power saving features such as frequency scaling and low power modes during runtime operations. The proposed scheduler will reduce the power consumption of the microcontroller in a dynamic fashion according to the available slack time in which the maximum processing power is not required for the computational and I/O tasks at hand.
