Abstract: An energy-efficient assignment of a task set  T  to a group of  M  processing devices models the process of deciding the assignment as a combinatorial optimization problem having an objective function optimizing the power consumption of the devices when executing subsets of the tasks, under a constraint that the total utilization of the task subset assigned to each respective processing device is lower than a threshold depending on the number of its processor cores. The objective function may be:      min       ∑     i   =   1     M         P   i         τ   i               , where  τ i    denotes the subset of tasks allocated to the ith device, and  P i   ( τ i   ) represents power consumption of the ith device when executing  τ i   , and the constraint  U τ i      ≤  M i   /4 for all the devices, where  U τ i      is the total utilization of  τ i    executing on the  i   th  device, and  M i    denotes the number of cores of the  i   th  device. Solving the problem using a MaxMin or genetic algorithm gives good energy efficiency.

Abstract: A jamming cleat (10) has a groove (17) to receive 'and grip a rope (30). At least a part of the depth of the groove has facing side walls (18, 19) each of which is formed with a plurality of ridges (20). The edges are inclined upwardly from the base of the groove towards one end of the groove, and the crests of the ridges on each side (18, 19) of the groove (17) lie generally in one common ridge crest plane (c, d). The ridge crest planes (c, d) converge downwardly towards the bottom of the groove and diverge lengthwise of the groove away from the said one end of the groove. In use a rope or cord (30) is laid in the groove (17) and pulled through the groove in a direction away from the said one end of the groove. The ridges (20) draw the rope (30) down towards the bottom of the groove so as to jam the rope in the groove. The extent to which the rope is drawn down into the groove (17) increases progressively away from the said one end but the rope is gripped generally uniformly along the length of the groove because of the divergence (e) of the ridge crest planes (c, d).
