Parallel Simulation Based on Multi-core Platform: A Review
Shirish V. Pattalwar, Vilas M. Thakare, Manzoor Ghulam Ahmed · 2013
Multiple core designs dominating the processor market, and are hence a major focus in modern computer architecture research. Thus, for both product development and research, multiple core processor simulation environments are necessary, Parallel simulation is always been a first choice for speeding up simulations with multi-core computing platform. In this paper we have presented the research on parallel simulation based multi-core architecture. First we present a survey of existing simulators and simulation methodologies for parallel simulation based on multi-core and finally we present some of the challenges and recommendations to encourage research in designing of parallel simulator based on multicore platform that could be run with windows OS directly.
