D118 · Seismic field-array data pipeline
Both designs return the same required output fields, encoded response bytes and final state within this defined model. Each job contains 4 useful frames and repeats every 100 ms.
Input power: 0.351956175 → 0.351652899 W at 10 jobs/s. ΔQ̇ = (Eordinary − Eselected) / job period, for equal energy leaving in forms other than heat and equal stored-energy change. The input-power model includes the unchanged reference load and shared costs.
Ordinary → selected completion: 5,463.39 → 5,685.53 µs; required deadline 80,000 µs.
The changes included in this design.
- Serial lookup arithmetic
- Compact state layout
- Bounded history lookahead
- Streaming boundary
- Clock gating with its cost charged
- Fixed CPU interface with its traffic charged
The model compares the selected design with the best eligible conventional design in the study. Both include compatible improvements. The energy calculation counts logic, memory, clocks, connections, setup, idle time, resets and recovery once.

Operating conditions, uncertainty and fitting the design into a product
One reference controller/processor, shared memory, sensor/clock rails and the stated unchanged external load; compute-specific increments and added resources are priced by the R5 common cost-law artifact.
Supply efficiency in the model: 90%. Shared loads and loads that stay unchanged: common host control W 0.02 W; common memory W 0.005 W; common clock sensor W 0.01 W; plant or external load W 0.2 W.
- Runtime-visible event/retention policy and exact required output/raw-review horizon
- Input byte/arrival traces with events, pre/post-trigger context and metadata format
- Queue capacity, throughput, timestamps, continuity, wake/stall/retry and recovery semantics
- Cost placement before a real constrained data edge; exact accepted reduction and ordinary comparator
The portfolio has 13 savings at the main modeled point, 100 ties using the conventional fallback, and 7 unmatched comparisons across 120 references. Positive advantages passing both the strict and combined tighter uncertainty tests: 0.

YOUR PRODUCT’S THERMAL INPUTS
Calculate the cooling mass.
Use the heat carried by this cooling path and the weight of its installed parts, including added hardware. The comparison task’s average power change contributes to that total device calculation.
Chosen model: effective area follows Q = hAΔT; the fixed mass stays, the area-scaled mass changes, and added parts are charged.
Enter the product’s heat-path and part-weight values to calculate the cooling change.
Explore the calculation.
Heat energy = input energy − energy leaving in forms other than heat − change in stored energy.
