Information theoretic measures of energy consumption at register transfer level
- The problem of estimating the energy consumption at register transfer level is addressed from an information theoretical point of view. It is shown that the average switching act...

Register-transfer level estimation techniques for switching activity and power consumption
We present techniques for estimating switching activity and power consumption in register-transfer level (RTL) circuits. Previous work on this topic has ignored the presence of gl...

Automatic insertion of low power annotations in RTL for pipelined microprocessors
We propose instruction-driven slicing, a new technique for annotating microprocessor descriptions at the Register Transfer Level (RTL) in order to achieve lower power dissipation....

Automating RT-Level Operand Isolation to Minimize Power Consumption in Datapaths
Designs which do not fully utilize their arithmetic datapath components typically exhibit a significant overhead in power consumption. Whenever a module performs an operation who...

Power emulation: a new paradigm for power estimation
In this work, we propose a new paradigm called power emulation, which exploits hardware acceleration to drastically speedup power estimation. Power emulation is based on the obser...
