Reverse State Reconstruction for Sampled Microarchitectural Simulation
For simulation, a tradeoff exists between speed and accuracy. The more instructions simulated from the workload, the more accurate the results — but at a higher cost. To reduce ...

Branch History Matching: Branch Predictor Warmup for Sampled Simulation
Computer architects and designers rely heavily on simulation. The downside of simulation is that it is very time-consuming — simulating an industry-standard benchmark on today...

Memory reference reuse latency: Accelerated warmup for sampled microarchitecture simulation
Abstract— This paper proposes to speedup sampled microprocessor simulations by reducing warmup times without sacrificing simulation accuracy. It exploiting the observation that ...

Simulation sampling with live-points
Current simulation-sampling techniques construct accurate model state for each measurement by continuously warming large microarchitectural structures (e.g., caches and the branch...

Branch trace compression for snapshot-based simulation
We present a scheme to compress branch trace information for use in snapshot-based microarchitecture simulation. The compressed trace can be used to warm any arbitrary branch pred...
