Abstract

This paper addresses the scheduling issue in a real-time computing system such as a wireless sensor node which is supplied with regenerative energy present in the environment. We consider preemptive task scheduling with fixed priority assignment. We propose a novel energy harvesting aware scheduling approach, namely FP-H. We show how processing time and energy should be assigned to the deadline constrained tasks in a short-term perspective so as to guarantee energy neutrality whenever possible.
