低功率之異質多核心資源管理，隨著工作相依性使得其複雜度提升，優先權反轉也會影響耗能權衡問題。這篇論文提出一個異質多核心資源管理的架構，搭配節能頻寬保留與動態調整頻率達到降低耗能。為達到最小化系統整體耗能，我們擴充不可搶佔式資源使用區間方法為低功率資源管理方法。本論文提出的架構經由不同工作負載與不同資源管理方法以驗證可行性，並經由一系列的實驗觀察大量的本文交換與不同的低耗能頻寬保留對於系統耗能之影響力

On-line energy-efficient resource management for heterogeneous multi-core system-on-a-chip is more challenging issue due to precedence constraint, resource sharing, the different frequency and different properties of the general-purpose processor core and the synergistic processor core. This study proposed on-line heterogeneous multi-core energy-efficient resource management framework for the workload with hard real-time constraints. The varying energy efficient ratio caused different energy consumption while considering of sharing resource between subtasks or cores, while precedence constraint between subtasks belonging to same task. Our gaol is to minimize energy consumption under inviolate timer constraint. The capability of the proposed methodology is verified by a series of experiments.
