Trap-driven memory simulation with Tapeworm II
1997
ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation
Trap-driven simulation is a new approach for analyzing the performance of memory-system components such as caches and translation-lookaside buffers (TLBs). Unlike the more traditional trace-driven approach to simulating memory systems, trap-driven simulation uses the hardware of a host machine to drive simulations with operating-system kernel traps instead of with address traces. As a workload runs, a trap-driven simulator dynamically modifies access to memory in such a way as to make memory
