Summary: 
The proposed scheduling scheme minimizes the mean power consumption of real-time tasks with probabilistic computation amounts while meeting their deadlines. Our study formally solves the minimization problem under finitely discrete clock frequencies with irregular power consumptions, whereas state-of-the-arts studies did under infinitely continuous clock frequencies with regular power consumptions.
