Abstract

An energy consumption simulation and evaluation system for embedded device in energy consumption evaluation technology for electronic devices, which solves the problem that the energy consumption cannot be simulated under tasks operation condition with the existing systems. The present invention includes a graphical configuration management module for inputting graphical configuration parameters, a device energy consumption model building block for obtaining the AADL description model for software and hardware components through AADL abstract description of software and hardware at system-level, a model transformation module for AADL to GSPN model transformation; and a GSPN simulation module which utilizes QPME tool to simulate GSPN model; selectively loads an external energy-consuming event from the energy-consuming events sequence; and perform energy consumption simulation for the GSPN model in response to the external energy-consuming event by QPME tool to obtain a simulation result of the residual energy and lifetime of the system.
