Abstract :
This research presents analytical models based on an energy consumption metric to analyze the impact of dynamic frequency scaling on the energy consumption of various architectural design choices for hybrid architecture chips. The power consumption implications of different processing schemes and various chip configurations were also analyzed. The analysis shows that by choosing the optimal hardware configuration, the energy savings can be increased considerably while keeping sacrifices in performance at tolerable levels.
