Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.
  • You cannot copy text or images from the file.
  • You cannot edit the file.

Printing the thesis

  • You can print the thesis for your personal study or research use.
  • Aalto University students and staff members may print black-and-white prints on the PrintingPoint devices when using the computer with personal Aalto username and password. Color printing is possible using the printer u90203-psc3, which is located near the customer service. Color printing is subject to a charge to Aalto University students and staff members.
  • Other customers can use the printer u90203-psc3. All printing is subject to a charge to non-University members.

Abstract (eng): Power consumption issues are one of the most significant factors affecting the future of performance improvements in modern microprocessors.
This is all the more important for mobile and handheld devices running on battery.
This work demonstrates a first order, linear power model using Hardware Performance Counters (HPC) to estimate the CPU and memory power consumptions.
The experiments are done on a Nokia N810 device based on a TI OMAP 2420 processor.
We derive and validate a set of power weights using regression modelling for performance and power and present a general power model.
We also present two application specific power models, one for audio player application and one for a video player application.

The use of HPC for performance-power prediction seems to be more popular than simulator based approaches which are time consuming and error prone.
On most processors, the number of HPCs which can be monitored simultaneously is very limited.
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first model based on just 3 HPC.
We present our preliminary results from our experiments and discuss how in future this model can be combined with power modelling for data transmissions to create a full system energy profiler of mobile devices.
