We propose a high-level analytical model for estimating the energy and/or power dissipation in VLSI processor (systolic) array implementations of loop programs, particularly for i...
—While array structures are a significant source of power dissipation, there is a lack of accurate high-level power estimators that account for varying array circuit implementat...
