Abstract: : -- An ongoing research project involves the design and evaluation of a software system for simulating parallel computers. A major goal in the development of this system was to avoid the high overhead associated with the conventional instruction-level simulation of sequential computers, but to retain the accuracy of that technique derived from its use of the execution of real programs. The resulting system is program-driven, but the overhead is significantly reduced by profiling the program to ... (Update)

...a future system where the target instruction set has not been implemented in hardware yet. The execution driven approach has been used in [5]. A simulator with trace driven workload use memory reference traces generated by programs running on an existing system as input to the...

...cache line size, common to both L1 and L2 caches, is 32 bytes. The processor execution is modeled using a technique called code augmenting [27]. The original sequential code of the parallel application is instrumented in order to simulate the processor execution, counting the...
