1 This work was supported by Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute under contract # 1010-2004-0098 Abstract – Energy and performance are two of the most important parameters in designing embedded systems. In this paper, we describe the architecture and implementation of ePRO, a tool for energy and performance profiler for embedded applications. Energy profiling is mainly based on the hardware instrumentation which measures current samples during execution of embedded applications with the support of a periodic kernel module. Performance profiling is done with little side effect to embedded applications by using a performance monitoring unit which is provided in the architectural level. Using ePRO, we could improve the energy consumption and the performance of a digital signal processing application by 5.4% and 4.4%, respectively.
