MIPS32 Simulator -- "1/25th the performance at none of the cost"
|
|
|
|
Spim/Xspim simulates MIPS32 assembly code, providing a gdb and xgdb
|
|
like interface to the classical MIPS RISC CPU. The virtual machine
|
|
it provides can be either the one presented by the MIPS assembler or the
|
|
one of the bare hardware. The simulator can also be built to simulate the
|
|
pipeline architecture of the MIPS machine (both the control and floating
|
|
point pipelines). When built for this, it also simulates and displays
|
|
an instruction and data cache.
|
|
|
|
This simulator is useful in CS and EE classes, including providing a
|
|
target machine for compilers courses, lower division assembly language
|
|
programming, microprocessor design courses, etc...
