Using Neural NetworkfortheEvaluation ofPowerConsumption ofInstructions Execution

Inthis workamethod isbeing proposed forestimating thepowerconsumption ofdigital processing systems bytheuseof neural networks. Thecasestudy isanARM7TDMIprocessor. Real hardware dataarealready knownforthis processor andprovided forneural network training. Manydifferent attempts fortraining havebeenmade,bycombining different setsoftraining vectors to theneural network andinitial results havebeenextracted. Results indicate that theproposed approach isgoodfor powerconsumption estimation, andwithaproper selection oftraining vectors, the neural network canprovide results with increased accuracy.
