摘要: The computing systems, and particularly microarchitectures, are in a continuous expansion reaching an unmanageable complexity by the human mind. In order to understand control this expansion, researchers need design implement larger more complex systems’ simulators. current paradigm simulators play key role going further, translating all processing mechanisms relevant easy information. This paper aims make suggestive description of concepts principles implemented into Simultaneous Multithreading Architecture. We introduce SMTAHSim framework, educational tool that simulates interactive manner important aspects particular microarchitecture. graphical simulation results reporting techniques provide lot information outline expressive image (SMT) mechanisms. Our developed software facilitates understanding theoretical questions, thus allowing students feel confident when studying SMTrelated issues.
