PetaSIM was designed to allow "qualitative" performance estimates" where in particular the design of machine is particularly easy to change
|
|
The project will build up a suite of applications which can be used in future activities such as "Petaflop" architectures studies
|
|
Applications are to be derived "by hand" or by automatic generation from Maryland Application Emulators
|
|
Special attention to support of hierarchical memory machines and data intensive applications
|
|
Support parallelism and representation at different grain sizes
|
|
Support simulation of "pure data-parallel" and composition of linked modules
