Abstract

Embedded systems are identified by the processors, on which application-oriented programs have to run. Most of the actions on the processor are controlled and coordinated by the software, and also, it has a fundamental role in the system design. In this paper, we are estimating and optimizing the energy consumed by the processor with the Lagrange principle, by considering the task and energy consumed by the particular task for a particular time instant by the core in Ubuntu as well as in arm development studio-5. This helps to improve the performance of the processors dynamically in the future generations. Now they are widely used in hand-held devices and many other portable consumer gadgets. The ARM processors provide tremendous achievement with less power consumption and compact size performance analysis.
