Abstract
An apparatus and method are provided for scheduling graph computing on heterogeneous platforms based on energy efficiency. A scheduling engine receives an edge set that represents a portion of a graph comprising vertices with at least one edge connecting two or more of the vertices. The scheduling engine obtains an operating characteristic for each processing resource of a plurality of heterogeneous processing resources. The scheduling engine computes, based on the operating characteristics and an energy parameter, a set of processing speed values for the edge set, each speed value corresponding to a combination of the edge set and a different processing resource of the plurality of heterogeneous processing resources. The scheduling engine identifies an optimal processing speed value from the set of computed speed values for the edge set.
