POPeye : A System Analysis Simulator for DRAM Performance Evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
− We implemented POPeye (Probe of Performance + eye), a system analysis simulator to evaluate DRAM performance in a personal computer environment. When running any real-life application programs such as Microsoft Office and Paint Shop Pro on Windows OS, POPeye simulates detailed transactions between a CPU and a memory system. Using this tool, we comparatively analyzed the performance of a DDR-SDRAM, a D-RDRAM, and a DDR-FCRAM. Index Terms− popeye, simulator, DRAM, Performance, Windows

متن کاملDRAM simulator for design and analysis of digital systems
The DRAM is a typical bottleneck of a digital system. Moreover, the architectures are getting more complex, which makes their evaluation harder. In this paper, we propose a fast and early estimation of the memory system performance with an actual application in mind. A DRAM simulator, Rascas, developed for this purpose is presented. Rascas is used to study the DRAM behavior with several memory ...
متن کاملEvaluating Power Management Strategies for High Performance Memory (DRAM): A Case Study for Achieving Effective Analysis by Combining Simulation Platforms and Real Hardware Performance Monitoring
Developing dynamic power management strategies for high performance systems requires a good understanding of the power-performance trade-offs underlining the workload-strategy-system interactions. The feasibility of detailed simulations to help here is severely limited by the range of problem sizes that can be simulated and simulation speed. For our work we want to understand the effectiveness ...
متن کاملA Hybrid Analytical DRAM Performance Model
Abstract As process technology scales, the number of transistors that can fit in a unit area has increased exponentially. Processor throughput, memory storage, and memory throughput have all been increasing at an exponential pace. As such, DRAM has become an ever-tightening bottleneck for applications with irregular memory access patterns. Computer architects in industry sometimes use ad hoc an...
متن کاملExploring Opportunities for Non-volatile Memories in Big Data Applications
Large-capacity memory system allows big data applications to load as much data as possible for in-memory processing, which improves application performance. However, DRAM faces both scalability and energy challenges due to its inherent charging mechanism. Thus, DRAM-based memory system incurs excessive cost to meet both capacity and energy requirements for the emerging big data workloads. Fortu...
