Abstract—We generate and provide miniature synthetic benchmark clones for modern workloads to solve two pre-silicon design challenges, namely: 1) huge simulation time (weeks to m...
Power density continues to increase exponentially with each new technology generation, posing a major challenge for thermal management in modern processors. Much past work has exa...
Performance evaluation of contemporary processors is becoming increasingly difficult due to the lack of proper frameworks. Traditionally, cycle-accurate simulators have been exte...
In this paper, we are concerned about the performance estimation of bus-based architectures assuming that the task partitioning on the processing components is already determined....
—Modern micro-architecture simulators are many orders of magnitude slower than the hardware they simulate. The use of multiprocessor architectures for supporting future mobile an...
