Cluster '06:
This paper describes our work with Simics [1] in the evaluation of protocol offloading to keep low the communication overheads on the host CPU. Simics is a platform that can be used for a functional system simulation, including the application program, the operating system, the protocol stack and the device drivers. Nevertheless, network-oriented applications require a full-system simulation th...
متن کاملAn Integrated Design Paradigm for Accelerating Full-system Simulations
In recent years, a lot of progress has been made in the field of simulator design and new simulation accleration techniques, warming technique etc have been introduced. However, despite many isolated efforts of performance enhancement, integrated efforts to benefit one proposal from other, has been lacking. In this paper, we argue for and demonstrate a unified approach for enhancing computer ar...
متن کاملWind River Simics for Multi-core Systems Development
The hardware shift to multi-core processors and multiprocessor systems calls for new software and systems development tools to help developers transform their code into parallel applications and gain performance increases. Developers now have to know how to create software and architect systems that can use parallel hardware efficiently. Virtualized systems development is a development methodol...
متن کاملOn the Evaluation of x86 Web Servers Using Simics: Limitations and Trade-Offs
In this paper, we present our first experiences using Simics, a simulator which allows full-system simulation of multiprocessor architectures. We carry out a detailed performance study of a static web content server, showing how changes in some architectural parameters affect final performance. The results we have obtained corroborate the intuition of increasing performance of a dual-processor ...
متن کاملModelling Time in Full System Simulation
Simulation of computer systems is becoming increasingly important in areas such as code optimization, performance evaluation and processor and memory system design. An important trade-off in simulator design is performance vs. abstraction of the model. Simics is a full system simulator, capable of simulating an entire computer system, including the processor, TLB, MMU, memory hierarchy and surr...
