Model Checking of Energy Consumption Behavior

  • Conference paper
Complex Systems Design & Management Asia

Abstract

Energy consumption is one of the primary non-functional properties to be addressed early in software system development. Model-based analysis methods are introduced in order to supplement the current practice of runtime profiler techniques. In the present paper, the energy consumption analysis is classified as a duration bounded cost constraint problem. Specifically, behavioral contracts based on Power Consumption Automata and properties written in terms of weighted linear temporal logic with freeze quantifiers are proposed. In addition, the problem is solved by model-checking of such logic formulas with respect to the automaton.
