ABSTRACT:
Briefly, a processor and a method to control a power consumption of the processor are presented. The method may include: counting a micro-architecture event of a component of the processor, estimating the power consumption value of the processor based on a weighted value of the counted micro-architecture event and filtering the weighted value of the counted micro-architecture event.
