20090138225 | METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR CALIBRATING SENSORS - Methods and apparatuses to perform calibration of imprecise sensors for power monitoring in a data-processing system are described. The system includes a load coupled to one or more sensors. An electronic load changes a first input signal through one or more sensors by a predetermined amount. A difference in an output signal from the one or more sensors in response to the changing is obtained. The output signal is measured and sampled. A distribution of samples of the output signal is determined. The estimated parameters of the distribution that most likely to explain actual data are determined. Next, a transfer function of the one or more sensors is determined based on the estimated parameters. The input signal through the load is accurately predicted using the transfer function of the one or more sensors to monitor the power usage by the load. | 05-28-2009 |
20110154309 | COMPILER WITH ENERGY CONSUMPTION PROFILING - An energy based framework is disclosed that allows a software compiler or developer to make decisions between performance and energy consumption. In one aspect, a first program code (e.g., vector engine based computation) may alternatively be compiled into a second program code (e.g., register operations). Using measurements obtained from a processor for which the first and second program codes are being compiled, and the expected size of the data and a number of iterations, a comparison can be made between the expected energy consumption profile of the first program code and the equivalent second program code. Based on the comparison, a software developer or the compiler can choose the program code that minimizes energy consumption. | 06-23-2011 |

20120313944 | COHERENT OUT-OF-CORE POINT-BASED GLOBAL ILLUMINATION - A computer-animated scene is shaded by a computing system having an in-core memory and coupled to one or more out-of-core storage devices. The scene is comprised of shading locations on a surface element of an object in the scene. A point cloud representation of the scene is generated. An octree data structure based on the point cloud representation of the scene is generated. To generate the octree data structure, the Morton code for each point in the point cloud representation of the scene is computed. The points are then sorted based on the Morton code, recursively subdivided to find at most a threshold number of nodes, and written to the one or more out-of-core storage devices. The shading locations are then shaded based on the nodes written to the out-of-core storage devices. | 12-13-2012 |
