The Sniper Simulator

Sniper is a simulator based on the Graphite simulation framework. We build upon Graphite by adding accurate core (based on the mechanistic interval model), branch predictor and shared-cache memory models.

You can find additional information on the simulator and its components in our recently accepted SC2011 paper [ pdf ].

Features

  • The interval performance model [ pdf ]
    • Allows for fast and accurate simulation
  • CPI stack generation
    • Shows where your cycles are going
  • Shared caches, modern branch predictors
  • many more features
