Thanks for the reply.

I was also trying to ungroup power dissipation in various components i.e. buffers, arbiters and crossbar as well. I declared different functions in the NetwrokPower.C , which did the same stuff as they were doing in the main but now only calculating the individual powers.

But the results came out to be strange:

Router power : now in KW (earlier in 1-2 W)
Buffer power : in KW
Arbiter : ~0.01W (normal)
Crossbar : 2W

What can be the possible reason , why even the Router power shoots up even though I didn't make any change in the calculate_offline _power function.

If you take a look at Router_d:calculate_offline_power function, everything that is being calculated using the activity numbers is dynamic power. Leakage power is also labeled in the function. The dynamic power would be total power - leakage power.

Hi All,

I am trying to figure out the dissipated power in terms of static &
dynamic power. Now I believe the function calculate_offline_power()
in NetworkPower.C gives the total power( static & dynamic).

The leakage power defined in the same function is the static power
I think so is the rest the dynamic power?. If not then how to
calculate the dynamic power???
