Performance Improvement of Multi-Processor Systems Cosimulation based on SW Analysis
Jinyong Jung, Sungjoo Yoo, Ki‐Young Choi · 2001
In this paper, we propose a method for performance improvement of multi-processor systems cosimulation by reducing synchronization overhead between multiple simulators. To reduce the amount of simulator synchronization, we predict synchronization time points based on a static analysis of application software running on each processor. In the experiments with real embedded systems, we obtained up to orders of magnitude higher performance in cosimulation runtimes.
