Method for managing energy of local dynamic reconfigurable system by coordinatively processing software and hardware

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for managing energy of a local dynamic reconfigurable system by coordinatively processing software and hardware. The conventional reconfigurable system has a high energy efficiency ratio. The method comprises the following steps of: performing task partitioning on application according to functional modules and establishing corresponding software task and hardware task; acquiring the power consumption of processing the software task and the hardware task, the time of processing the software task and the hardware task and the hardware task configuration time, and selecting the software task and the hardware task according to the principle of local energy optimum; constructing a directed acyclic graph of the application according to the relation constraint between the software task and the hardware task, and calculating the task priority level; and finally, coordinatively processing the software task and the hardware task. Due to the adoption of the method, an application example which is operated on a reconfigurable system of a dynamic part and comprises a plurality of tasks can realize effective energy management, so that the reconfigurable system of the dynamic part processes the application example and reduces energy consumption.
