+## Profiler
+
+This is a CMake static library that exposes a C++ API for a very simple logging based profiler implementation. It
+depends on the hardware abstraction layer's platform drivers to get performance measurement counters (PMU) from the
+platform. It makes no assumptions about the type of data these counters might contain and therefore each individual
+platform is free to implement their own flavour. It works on the principle that each counter capsule will have one, or
+several, 64-bit counters which are used to maintain rolling statistics.
