An improved classification methodology for sorting data-processing instructions for ARM7TDMI CPU core is presented in this paper. Main discussion here is related to the process of creating appropriate training sets for neural network (NN) based estimation of power consumption. We have proposed instructions’ sorting methodology according to the binary instruction representation and the resources being used for the overall system model. Thus separate instructions groups are obtained for NN-based estimation of power consumption. Experimental results of the proposed method confirm successful usage of this sorting methodology for providing higher accuracy estimation of power consumption.References
