Abstract

The effectiveness of multicores depends on how well a scheduler can assign tasks onto the cores efficiently. In a heterogeneous multicore platform, the execution time of an application depends on which core it executes on. That is to say, the effectiveness of task assignment is one of the important components for a multicore systems`` performance. This work proposes a load scheduling technique that analyzes execution time of each task by profiling. The profiling result provides a basic information to predict which task-to-core mapping is likely to provide the best performance. By using such information, the proposed technique is about 26% performance gain.
