This paper presents new instruction-level power model for an asynchronous processor, A8051. Even though the proposed model estimates power consumption as instruction level, this model reflects the behavioral features of asynchronous pipeline during the program is executed. Thus, it can effectively enhance the accuracy of power model for an asynchronous embedded processor without significant complexity of power model as well as the increase of simulation time. The proposed power model is based on the implementation of A8051 to reflect the characteristics of power consumption in A8051. The simulation results of the proposed model is compared with that of gate-level synthesized A8051. The proposed power model shows the accuracy of 94% and the simulation time for estimation the power consumption was reduced to 1,600 times.

Recently, as cloud computing technologies are developed, it enable to work anytime and anywhere by smart phone and computer. Also, cloud computing technologies are suited to reduce costs of maintaining IT infrastructure and initial investment, so cloud computing has been developed. As demand about cloud computing has risen sharply, problems of power consumption are occurred to maintain the environment of data center. To solve the problem, first of all, power consumption has been measured. Although using power meter to measure power consumption obtain accurate power consumption, extra cost is incurred. Thus, we propose prediction method about power consumption without power meter. To proving accuracy about proposed method, we perform CPU and Hard disk test on cloud computing environment. During the tests, we obtain both predictive value by proposed method and actual value by power meter, and we calculate error rate. As a result, error rate of predictive value and actual value shows about 4.22% in CPU test and about 8.51% in Hard disk test.

In order to increase energy efficiency, developments of the advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) in the smart grid technology have recently been actively conducted. An essential part of AMI is analyzing power consumption and forecasting consumption patterns. In this paper, we analyze the power consumption and summarized the data errors. Monthly power consumption patterns are also analyzed using the k-means clustering algorithm. Forecasting the consumption pattern by each household is difficult. Therefore, we first classify the data into 100 clusters and then predict the average of the next day as the daily average of the clusters based on the deep neural network. Using practically collected AMI data, we analyzed the data errors and could successfully conducted power forecasting based on a clustering technique.

This paper presents the new instruction-level power model for an asynchronous processor. Until now, the various power models for estimating the power dissipation of embedded processor in SoC are proposed. Since all of them are target to the synchronous processors, the accuracy is questionable when we apply those power models to the asynchronous processor in SoC. To solve this problem, we present new power model for an asynchronous processor by reflecting the behavioral features of an asynchronous circuit. The proposed power model is verified using an implementation of asynchronous processor, A8051. The simulation results of the proposed model is compared with the measurement result of gate-level synthesized A8051. The proposed power model shows the accuracy of 90.7% and the simulation time for estimation the power consumption was reduced to 1,900 times.

배터리를 이용하는 모바일 장비에서 전력 소비를 줄이기 위한 많은 연구들이 있다. 그 중에 동적 전력 관리(Dynamic Power Management)는 시스템의 각 컴포넌트의 상태를 쉽게 관찰할 수 있다는 측면에서 운영체제에서 접근하기 적합한 전력 관리 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 대표적인 모바일 장비인 노트북에서 하드 디스크의 전력소비를 줄이기 위하여 기계 학습 기반의 동적 전력 관리 방법을 제안한다. 하드 디스크 접근 패턴을 분석하여 Artificial Neural Network(ANN) 기법으로 모형을 만들고 이 모형을 바탕으로 하드 디스크의 다음 유휴기간을 예측하였다. 예측된 유휴기간 동안 하드 디스크로의 공급 전력을 감소시키지 않았을 경우에 소비하는 비용이 전력을 줄였다 다시 늘이는 비용보다 크다면 하드 디스크로 공급되는 전력을 줄임으로써 유휴기간 동안 낭비되는 배터리 전력을 줄일 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 생성된 모형을 하드 디스크 디바이스 드라이버에 적용하면 기존의 시간 경계 값을 이용한 방법에 비해 약 23.05W의 전력 소비 감소를 기대할 수 있다.

This paper proposes a low-power carry look-ahead adder using multi-threshold voltage CMOS. The designed adder is compared with conventional CMOS adder. The propagation delay time is reduced by using low-threshold voltage transistor in the critical path. Also, the power consumption is reduced by using high-threshold voltage transistor in the shortest path. The other logic block is implemented with normal-threshold transistor. Comparing with the conventional CMOS circuit, the proposed circuit is achieved to reduce the power consumption by 14.71% and the power-delay-product by 16.11%. This circuit is designed with Samsung $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process. The validity and effectiveness are verified through the HSPICE simulation.

In order to estimate the power consumed by an embedded microprocessor during an execution of software, we measure and utilize the current consumed by the processor during the execution of each instruction. In this paper, we measure and analyse the current consumed by the microprocessor adc16s310 during the execution of arithmetic and logic instructions, and propose a power estimation model which estimates the current for all instruction executions precisely by using a small numbers of current measurements. The proposed model can estimate the current with an average 0.34% error by using only 5.84% of total current measurements for arithmetic and logic instructions of the processor.

The building energy management system (BEMS), a system designed to efficiently manage energy production and consumption, aims to address the variable nature of power consumption within buildings due to their physical characteristics, necessitating stable power supply. In this context, accurate prediction of building energy consumption becomes crucial for ensuring reliable power delivery. Recent research has explored various approaches, including time series analysis, statistical analysis, and artificial intelligence, to predict power consumption. This paper analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of the Prophet model, choosing to utilize its advantages such as growth, seasonality, and holiday patterns, while also addressing its limitations related to data complexity and external variables like climatic data. To overcome these challenges, the paper proposes an algorithm that combines the Prophet model's strengths with the gated recurrent unit (GRU) to forecast short-term (2 days) and medium-term (7 days, 15 days, 30 days) building energy consumption. Experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed approach compared to conventional GRU and Prophet models.

As the range of use of urban unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) expands, it is necessary to operate UAVs efficiently because of its limited battery capacity. For this, it is required to find the optimal flight profile with various simulations. Therefore, it is important to predict the power and energy consumption of the UAV battery. In this paper, we analyzed the relationship between the speed and acceleration of the UAV and power consumption during the flight. Then, we derived a linear model, which is easily utilized. In addition, we also derived an accurate power consumption model based on deep neural network learning. To find the efficient model, we used learning data as 1) the GPS 3-axis velocity and acceleration data, 2) the IMU 3-axis velocity only, and 3) the IMU 3-axis velocity and acceleration data. The final model shows 5.86% error rate for power consumption and 1.50% error rate for the cumulative energy consumption.
