Cache-aware Scheduling for Energy Efficiency on Multi-Processors

Cache size is a scarce resource in multi processors systems, Scheduling has a dramatic impact on the delay introduced by cache contention. This paper investigates the effects between programs running on a multi processors system, considering cache contention. This paper is proposed in low load case, the most programs' number of each core is one. The goal is to reduce cache contention between threads, improve the performance of processor and shorten the execution time, to achieve the goal of reducing energy consumption.
