A Multithreading Local Search For Multiobjective Energy-Aware Scheduling In Heterogeneous Computing Systems

peer reviewedThis article introduces an efficient multithreading local search algorithm for solving the multiobjective scheduling problem in heterogeneous computing systems considering the makespan and energy consumption objectives. The proposed method follows a fully multiobjective approach using a Pareto-based dominance search executed in parallel. The experimental analysis demonstrates that the new multithreading algorithm outperforms a set of deterministic heuristics based on Min-Min. The new method is able to achieve significant improvements in both objectives in reduced execution times for a broad set of testbed instances
