Preface

This book is based on my dissertation. Thus, it presents my work in the area of power estimation at Electronic System Level as a research assistant of Professor Leupers at the Institute of Communication Technologies and Embedded Systems (ICE) at RWTH Aachen University. During my work at ICE, the writing of my dissertation, and the compilation of this book, several people have supported and accompanied me. I would like to take this opportunity to thank them. My first thanks go to the professors with whom I have worked at ICE, especially to my doctoral advisor, Professor Rainer Leupers. He has provided me the possibility to work in his research group and has supported me with constructive feedback on my research. Especially, he has shown me how to focus on practical problems and work toward their solution instead of interesting theoretical problems without application in practice by keeping the big picture in mind all the time. Furthermore, I would like to thank Professor Gerd Ascheid for his opinions and comments during the Network on Chip (NoC)
