Abstract

This paper presents a power evaluation framework designedfor estimating power consumption of a new video telephonecompression standard, ITU-H.263, at the system level.A hierarchical,mixed-level simulation environment is built andcycle-accurate power macro-modeling is used for the architecturalpower evaluation.Experimental results show the effectivenessof the proposed framework and models.
