Abstract: With ever-growing technical advances, performance of complex scientific and engineering applications has arrived at petaflops and exaflops range. However, massive power drawn from the large scale computing infrastructure has caused commensurate rise in electricity consumption, escalating data center ownership costs besides leaving carbon footprints. Judicious scheduling of complex applications with an objective to reduce overall makespan and reduced energy consumption has become one of the biggest confront in the realm of computing architectures. This paper presents a survey on energy efficient scheduling algorithms based on dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) and dynamic power management (DPM) techniques. The parameters considered are mainly the makespan, processor energy (dynamic and static) consumption, and network energy (communication) consumption, wherever appropriate during task scheduling.
Keywords: Power consumption, duplication based scheduling, list based scheduling, clustering based scheduling, dynamic power management, dynamic voltage and frequency scaling
