Hi, does DRAMPower account for DRAM's variable power consumption that depends on data or structural differences? The findings that prompted VAMPIRE indicate that these are important. I thought to ask because I know DRAMPower is actively being developed, but I'm not sure if the README is being kept up to date. Thank you!

Hey, the latest version of DRAMPower is separated into core and interface power. For the core power, we rely on the currents specified by the vendors. Structural differences are not taken into consideration. For the interface power, we use the real data that is transmitted over the busses to calculate the power.
