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
