Abstract:

Conventionally, the correctness of functional and non-functional properties of hardware components is ensured during design process by simulation. Moreover, different description languages are needed during development phases. Thus, by adopting the Action Systems, we are able to use the same formalism from specification down to implementation. In this study, exploit the possibilities to formally model power consumption in Action Systems context. The purpose is to develop formal power estimation flow, which can be used to monitor the power consumption from abstract level down to the gate level implementation.
