Query: Towards Energy Consumption Verification via Static Analysis   In this paper we leverage an existing general framework for resource usage
verification and specialize it for verifying energy consumption specifications
of embedded programs. Such specifications can include both lower and upper
bounds on energy usage, and they can express intervals within which energy
usage is to be certified to be within such bounds. The bounds of the intervals
can be given in general as functions on input data sizes. Our verification
system can prove whether such energy usage specifications are met or not. It
can also infer the particular conditions under which the specifications hold.
To this end, these conditions are also expressed as intervals of functions of
input data sizes, such that a given specification can be proved for some
intervals but disproved for others. The specifications themselves can also
include preconditions expressing intervals for input data sizes. We report on a
prototype implementation of our approach within the CiaoPP system for the XC
language and XS1-L architecture, and illustrate with an example how embedded
software developers can use this tool, and in particular for determining values
for program parameters that ensure meeting a given energy budget while
minimizing the loss in quality of service.
