CPI Event Set Metrics
Table B-5 “CPI Event Set: Metrics Available for Multiplexed PMU Statistics” shows the
metrics available using the CPI event set. See “Multiplexed PMU Statistics” (p. 38) for
more information.
In these metrics, replace statistic with one of the following: MEAN, STDEV, 90%CI,
MINIMUM, LOW90, HIGH90, or MAXIMUM.
