Predicting Program Power Consumption
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we investigate the degree to which power dissipation induced by program execution can be measured by application-level software tools and predicted by a compiler and runtime system. Application control of the power it uses while executing on a processor is critical to battery-powered mobile devices that are an integral to any realization of ubiquitous computing. Our work investigates the use of dissipation rates to make whole-program power-consumption estimates.

Effective Use of Performance Monitoring Counters for Run-Time Prediction of Power
Power dissipation and energy consumption have recently become first-order design constraints for microprocessors. In this paper we present the measured power dissipation of several SPEC benchmarks executing on a Pentium 4 processor. Using on-chip performance monitoring counters, we dynamically correlate relevant performance metrics such as instructions per cycle, second-level cache hits, and bo...
متن کاملStatistical Power Consumption Analysis and Modeling for GPU-based Computing
In recent years, more and more transistors have been integrated within the GPU, which has resulted in steadily rising power consumption requirements. In this paper we present a preliminary scheme to statistically analyze and model the power consumption of a mainstream GPU (NVidia GeForce 8800gt) by exploiting the innate coupling among power consumption characteristics, runtime performance, and ...

متن کاملCode Coverage-Based Power Estimation Techniques for Microprocessors
We have developed a function-level power estimation methodology for predicting the power dissipation of embedded software. For a given microprocessor core, we empirically build the “power data bank”, which stores the power information of the built-in library functions and basic instructions. To estimate the average power of an embedded software on this core, we first decompose the machine code ...
متن کاملAdaptive Mode Control for Low-Power Caches Based on Way-Prediction Accuracy
This paper proposes a novel cache architecture for low power consumption, called “Adaptive Way-Predicting Cache (AWP cache).” The AWP cache has multi-operation modes and dynamically adapts the operation mode based on the accuracy of way-prediction results. A confidence counter for way prediction is implemented to each cache set. In order to analyze the effectiveness of the AWP cache, we perform...
