Abstract
A system that generates a dynamic trace of power consumption in a computer system. The system periodically polls current sensors and associated voltage sensors within the computer system to generate dynamic traces of currents and associated voltages for individual components within the computer system. The system then generates a dynamic trace of total power consumption for the computer system based on the dynamic traces of the currents and the associated voltages for the constituent components.
