Energy consumption and execution time estimation of embedded system applications

Embedded systems often have conflicting constraints such as energy and time which considerably harden the design of those systems. In this context, this work proposes a mechanism for supporting design decisions on energy consumption and performance of embedded system applications. In order to depict the practical usability of the proposed methodology, a real case study as well as customized examples are presented. The estimates obtained through the conceived model are 93% close to the respective measures obtained from the real hardware platform.
