Abstract

The devices running embedded applications tend to be battery-powered, and the energy efficiency of their operations is an important enabler for the wide adoption of the Internet-of-Things. Optimization of energy usage depends on modelling power consumption. A model-based simulation must consider parameters that depend on the device used, the operating system, and the distributed application under study. A realistic simulation thus depends on knowledge regarding how and when devices consume energy. Direct measurement in wireless sensors is a common approach to evaluate the power consumed by the embedded devices in their different execution states. This paper presents an approach to direct measurement of consumed energy. We present the architecture and the measurement process that were implemented. Details are given regarding the setup of the experimental tests, and a discussion of the results hints at which architecture is the best for each application under study. The presented methodology can be easily extended to new architectures and applications, to streamline the process of building realistic models of power consumption.

资源受限设备的能耗意识

运行嵌入式应用程序的设备往往是电池供电的，其操作的能源效率是物联网广泛采用的重要促成因素。能源使用的优化取决于对能耗的建模。基于模型的仿真必须考虑依赖于所使用的设备、操作系统和所研究的分布式应用程序的参数。因此，真实的模拟取决于有关设备如何以及何时消耗能量的知识。无线传感器中直接测量是评估嵌入式设备在不同执行状态下功耗的常用方法。本文提出了一种直接测量所消耗能量的方法。我们展示了已实现的体系结构和度量过程。详细介绍了实验测试的设置，并对结果进行了讨论，提示对于所研究的每个应用程序哪种架构是最好的。所提出的方法可以很容易地扩展到新的体系结构和应用程序中，以简化构建实际功耗模型的过程。
