Energy Consumption Verification and other research lines at the IMDEA Software Institute

Energy consumption and the environmental impact of computing have become a major worldwide concern. It has become a crucial issue from high­performance computing and data centers down to systems which have to operate on batteries, such as implantable/portable medical devices or mobile phones. In parallel with advances in power­efficient hardware, significant additional energy savings can be achieved by making energy awareness an integral part of software development. We present our static analysis­based approach to this problem, and a tool based on this approach which can be used to integrate compile­time energy usage verification and optimization into the program development process. This research is carried out at the IMDEA Software Institute, a member of a new generation of research centers in the Madrid region. We will provide an overview of the other research lines of the Institute, as well as some comments on its genesis.
