Abstract
Techniques are provided for characterizing processor designs and estimating power consumption of software programs executing on processors. A power model of a processor may be obtained by performing simulation using one or more training programs to obtain average power consumption during one or more windows of operation, then using the results to select parameters and coefficients for a processor characterization equation that can estimate power consumption while minimizing error.
