A new research paper on arXiv proposes an analytical methodology for estimating the energy consumption of large language model (LLM) inference on GPUs like the NVIDIA H100. This method aims to provide a way to approximate energy usage without direct hardware telemetry, which is useful for comparative studies and system design. The approach breaks down energy consumption into components such as compute, memory access, and attention mechanisms, differentiating between prompt prefill and autoregressive decoding stages. AI
IMPACT Provides a framework for analyzing and optimizing the energy efficiency of LLM deployments.
