Abstract :
In this paper we introduce TrGen, a traffic generation environment specifically designed to interact with simulators of interconnection networks for parallel and distributed systems. This environment is able to generate synthetic traffic, and actual traffic taken from traces (of previous program runs). It can also cooperate with complete-system simulators to assemble a complete execution-driven simulation arrangement.
