- Abstract
The advantages of the increased chip integration for multicore technology exponentially improve the performance of the processor chip. However, with the increased number of cores, the power consumption of the system has become an increasingly important problem. Compared with homogeneous multicore, the main advantage of heterogeneous architecture on the power consumption is that it allows for the inclusion of processors whose design is specialized for particular types of jobs, and for jobs to be assigned to a processor best suited for that job. In most multicore platforms, cache resources is a scarce resource, different cores share on chip caches. Without effective management by the scheduler, such caches can cause thrashing that severely degrades system performance. An excellent task scheduling algorithm is an effective method to reduce Cache contention. The purpose of this paper is through the program feature classification reduce process cache contention, let the process which can better make use of the performance of processor execute upon high frequency cores, improving the processor performance reduce the execution time to achieve the purpose of reducing power consumption in a heterogeneous multicore system.
