Wearable devices are a growing field of research that can have a wide range of applications. The energy harvester is the most common source of power for wearable devices as well as in wireless sensor networks that require a battery-free operation. However, their power is restricted; consequently, power saving is crucial for wearable devices. Finding the best schedule for the various tasks that run on the wearable device can help to reduce power consumption. This paper presents a task scheduler for wearable medical devices based on Gaining-Sharing Knowledge (GSK) algorithm. The purpose of this task scheduler is to handle the tasks of a heart rate sensor and a temperature sensor to optimize the energy consumption throughout wearable medical devices. The proposed GSK-based scheduling algorithm is assessed against the state-of-the-art technique. The data used in our experiments are collected from an in-lab prototype.
