Abstract

In this paper, we present power models with clock and temperature scaling, and develop the first of its type coupled thermal and power simulation with temperature-dependent leakage power model at micro-architecture level. We show that leakage energy and total energy can be different by up to 2.5X and 2X for temperatures between 90°C and 130°C, respectively. Given such big energy variations, no power model at microarchitecture level is accurate without considering temperature dependent leakage models.
