SESSION 13
  Low-Power System Design
  Chair: Giovanni De Micheli - Stanford Univ., Stanford, CA
  Organizers: Renu Mehra, Enrico Macii

  This session deals with system level power minimization using dynamic voltage scaling. The first paper describes task scheduling algorithms that minimize energy in a multiprocessor environment. The second paper describes task scheduling algorithms that maximize battery life. The third paper minimizes energy in a multiprocessor environment by allowing each loop nest to be executed with multiple process and shutting off unused processors.
