A power analysis tool for an embedded application to support decision based Offloading

Objective: The power factor parameter plays an imperative role in design specification of embedded systems as large number of applications that runs on these systems is power critical. To develop a power efficient system, it is essential to know how power is consumed throughout the system. Methods: A proper power analysis tool is designed by partitioned the application and measures the power consumption in each partitioned block. Findings: This tool can be very helpful in the verification process of any embedded systems applications to meet the power constraints. Applications: This tool can be applied in mobile cloud computing environment to determine the power consumed task to get offloaded onto the cloud.
