Abstract
Building a large-scale CMP platform requires a deep investigation of core performance impact, cache hierarchy implications, and on- and off-die bandwidth requirements. simulation speed and flexibility constitute fundamental challenges in such an evaluation. ManySim, a trace-based simulation infrastructure, provides first-order architectural insights into LCMP platforms´ performance potential and scalability bottlenecks.
