A computer systems simulator

Published: 06 December 1982 Publication History

Abstract

We discuss the structure and content of a computer systems simulator being written in Demos, a Simula extension. The simulator is intended to bridge the gap between out and out performance simulators and simulators for software design. It provides skeleton descriptions of hardware components, and job profiles which can be tailored to particular applications. Use of the simulator is illustrated by examples of disk definitions, segmentation and paging.
