AM3352 Power Consumption calculation

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3352

Hi,

I'm a newbie with AM3352, in fact im not so familiar with a processor with this much peripherals & functionality. I'm starting to study a design based on AM3352. I want to calculate an approximate power consumption for the processor.I went  through the link http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/AM335x_Power_Estimation_Tool

and found the excel sheet supplied from TI.(http://www.ti.com/tool/powerest) inside the excel sheet it is specified to fill up the utilization in percentage & slots are there.

What is the utilization meaning here.. is it software using a particular peripheral during its scheduler time? And what exactly can be slots??

Sorry these questions may be stupid..Can some body please explain as i couldn't understand much from the accompanying description.

Thanks for any help 

Stephen
