Energy-Optimized Scheduling for AIoT Workloads Using TOPSIS

Year: 2025
Type: preprint
Abstract: AIoT workloads demand energy-efficient orchestration across cloud-edge infrastructures, but Kubernetes' default scheduler lacks multi-criteria optimization for heterogeneous environments. This paper presents GreenPod, a TOPSIS-based scheduler optimizing pod placement based on execution time, energy consumption, processing core, memory availability, and resource balance. Tested on a heterogeneous Google Kubernetes cluster, GreenPod improves energy efficiency by up to 39.1% over the default Kubernetes (K8s) scheduler, particularly with energy-centric weighting schemes. Medium complexity workloads showed the highest energy savings, despite slight scheduling latency. GreenPod effectively balances sustainability and performance for AIoT applications.
