AB  - Under heavy workload mobile real-time systems make full use of system resources to meet timing
constraints of tasks. Under light workload they need to reduce energy consumption due to limited system
resources and a limited power source. EDZL (Earliest Deadline until Zero Laxity), one of multiprocessor real-time
scheduling algorithms can enable higher system utilization than EDF (Earliest Deadline First) and its scheduling
overhead can be restricted. However, there is little work on reducing energy consumption in EDZL scheduling.
This study proposes a DVFS (Dynamic Voltage/Frequency Scaling) technique in EDZL scheduling. The
technique includes two algorithms: one that calculates a uniform speed on full-chip DVFS platforms and the
other that calculates task&#146;s individual speed on per-core DVFS platforms. We present simulation results that
show our technique is simple but effective for reducing energy consumption in real-time scheduling.
