Hi everyone.

I am looking for any free CPU simulator like Simplescalar

http://www.simplescalar.com/

but easier than Simplescalar.

I need to test a loop on that simulator. I failed to get what I want thru Google. It may be because searching keywords was not siutable.

Many thanks for any help.
 
What inscruction set are you trying to emulate? SimpleScalar does Alpha, PISA, ARM and x86.
 
you mean a heat simulator like the ones used in phase change cooling???
what heat load would you want??

It is x86 instructions.

As I told you, I need to test a simple loop on a CPU (in particular on multi-core CPU). If I found such a simulator, I want to add some instructions to enable my loop to execute on those cores, then to find out its performance, for example #of execution cycles.

I found SimOS, but it is not open-source, so I cannot add such instructions.
SimpleScalar is pretty complex especially its installation.
