This repository contains the laboratory assignments for the course of Advanced Computer Architecture.
The purpose of the exercises was to understand how gem5, McPAT simulators work and through them to know the parameters and issues that arise during the design process of a CPU.
In the Lab01, how gem5 operates is investigated and important information that can be obtained from its results is noted. In the Lab02, it is examined how different features of a system change its performance in some SPEC CPU2006 Benchmarks and its cost, using gem5. In the Lab03, it is examined how the same features change the power, energy efficiency and energy-delay product of of a system, using gem5 and McPAT.
