The demand for heterogeneous multicore platforms is growing at a rapid pace in modern gadgets. Such platforms help cater to various types of applications and thus provide high resource utilization. As each task has a different execution time on different types of cores, it is very challenging to schedule tasks on such platforms. With the advancement in technology, it has become imperative to manage energy consumption and temperatures of cores in multicore platforms. Hence, in this work, we propose RT-SEAT, a hybrid real-time scheduler for energy and temperature-efficient heterogeneous multicore systems. Through extensive experimental analysis, we have found that RT-SEAT is able to schedule more tasks (up to 46.75%), save more energy (up to 6.89%), and reduce the average temperature of the cores by 20.45%, when the system workload varies from 50% to 100%, with respect to the state-of-the-art.
