Simulator
[short link to this page: https://tu-dresden.de/zih/haec_sim/ ]
HAEC-SIM is a new trace-based parallel discrete event simulation framework designed for predicting the behavior of a novel computing platform running energy-aware parallel applications. Discrete event traces capture the runtime behavior of parallel applications on existing systems and form the basis for the simulation. The simulation framework processes the events of the input trace by applying simulation models that modify event properties. Thus, the output are again event traces that describe the predicted application behavior on the simulated target platform. Both input and simulated traces can be visualized and analyzed with established tools. The modular design of the framework enables simulation of different aspects such as temporal performance and energy efficiency by applying distinct simulation models.
