Due to cost, time, and flexibility constraints, simulators are often used to explore the design space when developing a new processor architecture, as well as when evaluating the ...
This paper proposes a parallel cycle-accurate microarchitectural simulator which efficiently executes its workload by splitting the simulation process along time-axis into many in...
The goal of this research is to lay the foundations for a formal theory , that abstracts from the procedural and interactive aspects involved in the generation of dramatic content....
This paper presents the Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method (ATAM), a structured technique for understanding the tradeoffs inherent in design. This method was developed to provi...
