Cache Simulator (to record Hit and Miss times and rates) made as a part of COL216 (Computer Architecture) course at IIT Delhi, Semester 2, 2023-24.
To compile into executable:
make
To clean old executables:
make clean
To run example tests:
make test
To run simulation:
First make, then run
./cacheSim <number of sets> <associativity> <block size in bytes> <write-allocate/no-write-allocate> <write-through/write-back> <lru/fifo> < <tracefile>
For analysis, edit and run experiments.py and observations.py:
python3 experiments.py
python3 observations.py
You can change your interpreter to python if applicable.
Note: The report outlines the explanations for the observed trends and aims to determine the best configuration for the trace.
