Power Modeling and Capping for Heterogeneous ARM/FPGA SoCs

Published in Proceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Field-Programmable Technology (FPT), IEEE, pp. 231–234, 2014

This paper addresses the challenge of power management in heterogeneous ARM/FPGA System-on-Chip (SoC) architectures. The authors propose a methodology for power modeling and capping, aiming to optimize energy efficiency in embedded systems. The approach is validated through experimental results, demonstrating its effectiveness in real-world applications.

Key contributions include:

  • Power Modeling: Development of a power modeling technique tailored for ARM/FPGA SoCs, enabling accurate estimation of power consumption.

  • Power Capping: Introduction of a power capping mechanism to limit power usage, ensuring energy efficiency without compromising performance.

  • Experimental Validation: Validation of the proposed methodology through experiments, showcasing its applicability in embedded systems.
