System and method for analysing cause related to excessive power consumption of application

Abstract

An apparatus for analyzing a cause of excessive power consumption of an application according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes: an estimating unit which estimates a context which is a specific situation defined in accordance with an environment in which the application is executed, based on operation information on an operation of corresponding modules which correspond to an application which is being currently executed and coding information of the application; a calculating unit which calculates a power consumption against power limit regarding whether the real-time power consumption exceeds a threshold value, based on real-time power consumption for every corresponding module and the threshold value for the power consumption requirement for every corresponding module; and a storing unit which matches and stores the calculated power consumption against power limit and the estimated context.
