PDATS II: improved compression of address traces
نویسنده
چکیده
The tremendous storage space required for a useful data base of memory reference traces has prompted a search for trace compaction techniques. PDATS is the standard trace format used in the NMSU TraceBase, a widely used archive of memory and instruction traces. The PDATS family of trace compression techniques achieves trace coding densities of about six references per byte — with no loss of reference type or address information — by using differential run-length encoding. This paper proposes an improvement on the PDATS scheme that doubles the typical compression ratio without losing information.

متن کاملLossless Trace Compression
The tremendous storage space required for a useful data base of program traces has prompted a search for trace reduction techniques. In this paper we discuss a range of information-lossless address and instruction trace compression schemes that can reduce both storage space and access time by an order of magnitude or more, without discarding either references or inter-reference timing informati...

The tremendous storage space required for a useful data base of traces has driven a search for trace compaction techniques. In this paper we present an information-lossless trace compression scheme that can reduce both storage space and access time by an order of magnitude or more, compared to ASCII-format traces, without discarding either references or inter-reference timing from the original ...
متن کاملEfficient Trace File Compression Design with Locality and Address Difference
Trace-driven simulation is a simple, fast, and convenient approach to simulate computer architecture for power consumption, throughput, CPU time, and other factors. However, trace-driven simulation requires a massive storage space to save the trace files of benchmark programs. Therefore, an important task is how to design a compression method that reduces the storage space of trace files effici...
متن کاملExtraction of Traces of Copper as Tetra-Butylammonium Tetrathiocyanato Copper (II) and Its Spectrophotometric Determination Using Eriochrome Black T
An extraction-spectrophotometric method for the determination of traces of copper (II) is described. The method is based on the quantitative extraction of copper as tetrabutylammonium tetrathiocyanato copper (II) into methyl isobutyl ketone, followed by spectrophotometric determination, using eriochrome black T as a metallochromic indicator. The red-violet mixed complex of copper absorbs at...
