PowerAPI is a middleware toolkit for building software-defined power meters.
Software-defined power meters are configurable software libraries that can estimate the power consumption of software in real-time.
PowerAPI supports the acquisition of raw metrics from a wide diversity of sensors (eg., physical meters, processor interfaces, hardware counters, OS counters) and the delivery of power consumptions via different channels (including file system, network, web, graphical).
As a middleware toolkit, PowerAPI offers the capability of assembling power meters «à la carte» to accommodate user requirements.

About

PowerAPI is an open-source project developed by the Spirals project-team, a joint research group between the University of Lille and Inria.
