Simulator Research Questions
From Modelado Foundation
Below are the questions addressed in the Simulator Research Panel. Please add your comments (with you name) after each question.
Technologies
Different simulation technologies, their role in the X-Stack software evaluation, and expected outcome.
- What simulation environment are you using? Wilf
- e.g. FSIM Blackcomb SST
- Where is that simulation environment lacking? Wilf
- e.g. Need data to calibrate power estimates
- Can you meet your needs with simulator tools and components that already exist? Wilf
- e.g. Is further investment required or will the tools get the job done
- What opportunities do you see to align simulators to maximize results and minimize tools development?
Infrastructure, Interoperability, Interaction
Infrastructure, interoperability, and interaction with co-design centers.
- What software software/applications are you planning to use to exercise the simulator? Wilf
- Are there any issues with your current software and applications plan and how could they be resolved? Wilf
Emulation
Role of emulation to supplement simulations for X-Stack.
- Do you have an emulation environment?
- How are you calibrating your simulations?
