Hello to everyone, First of all I would like to thank you for making this kind of simulator. It seems like a really useful tool that I am planing to use for my future study.
I wanted to ask 2 questions if you can help me. 1) My research includes possible implementation of dynamic memories in L1 and L2 cache but in order to simulate that I'll need somehow to incorporate "retention time" parameter (Time after the writing the world it becomes invalid and it needs to be refreshed) in cache simulation. Basically what I need is this: after writing the world in the cache I have to count number of cycles and after certain time threshold to react. Can you advice me somehow where it would be the best to do that. I was thinking to change specific cache protocols file but is it going to be enough if I change that. 2) I also wanted to ask since I didn't understood which cache coherency protocol is implemented. is it MESI or MOESI or both? I was confused a little bit but I think that on the website you mention that only MESI is implemented on one place and on other place you mention MOESI. I would really like to thank you in forward and I hope that you continue to support the MARSS in the future. best regards Zoran -- Zoran Jakšić ------------------------------------------------------ Research Assistant Computer Architecture Department Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya ------------------------------------------------------- Address: Campus Nord UPC C6-E208 CR.
