Abstract:The need for low power, small form-factor, secondary storage devices in embedded systems has led to the widespread use of flash memory. Energy consumption due to processor and flash for such devices is critical to embedded system design. In this paper, we have proposed a quantitative account of energy consumption in both processor and flash due to overhead of filesystem related system calls. A macromodel for such energy consumption is derived using linear regression analysis. The results describing filesystem … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
