The present invention provides a processor power consumption estimating method comprising the steps of receiving a source program prior to compile of an execution program for a processor, tracing the source program, receiving trace information and detecting whether or not the processor is stalled when the instructions are executed, receiving trace information to which stall information is added and estimating power consumption when the instructions are executed, and outputting an estimated result of the power consumption, wherein the stall information are detected by looking up operation information of the processor in the stall detecting step, and the power consumption in the processor is estimated by looking up a library in which power consumption for each instruction is collected with regard to the stall information in the estimating step. The present invention provides also a power consumption estimating system for executing this processor power consumption estimating method, and a storage medium storing a program to perform this this processor power consumption estimating method. |
