Benchmarks for energy measurement

Dec 12, 2007 7 Replies

Hi to everyone,



Does any of you know what kind of benchmarks to use in order to measure the energy of embedded systems?



Thank you, LD


Watt are you talking about?

EEMBC has an energy benchmark:

Pertti

I will explain what I mean. In the bibliography there are some models that can estimate the energy that the software consumes without the need to measure the actual system using electrological or electronic equipment. Of course these models are not so accurate but it's a solution. What I want is source code freely distributed in order to measure its energy consumption for a specific architecture. LD

What bibliography? Would I be right in thinking this is homework?

So you want to calculate processor power consumption. Not "embedded system" power consumption. You can usually get this sort of thing from manufacturers data - power consumption vs. clock speed. Is that what you're talking about?

0.5 * mass * square(velocity). Works for anything.

Only for kinetic energy. Won't help for potential energy.
