ZSim: Fast and Accurate Microarchitectural Simulation of Thousand-Core Systems

Architectural simulation is time-consuming, and the trend towards hundreds of cores is making sequential simulation even slower. Existing parallel simulation techniques either scale poorly due to excessive synchronization, or sacrifice accuracy by allowing event reordering and using simplistic conte...
