Welcome to the GPGPU-Sim User Manual repository! This is a detailed document prepared for developers and researchers who use GPGPU-Sim and are interested in GPU architecture and its simulation implementation. Unlike the official manual, this manual focuses on code-level implementation details, providing users with resources to more easily get started with GPGPU-Sim.
GPGPU-Sim is a powerful graphics processing unit (GPU) simulator that allows users to simulate program execution in various Nvidia GPU architectures. It is a valuable tool for studying GPU performance optimization, architecture modifications, and parallel computing models.
Features of this repository include:
-
Detailed architecture description: We provide in-depth analysis of various aspects of GPU architecture to help you understand its inner workings.
-
Code-level comments: Through detailed comments on the GPGPU-Sim code base, we allow you to deeply understand the implementation details of the simulator.
-
Practical guides and examples: To make it easier for you to get started with GPGPU-Sim, we provide practical usage guides and sample codes.
This repository is still a work in progress, and future work plans include:
-
Add more examples: We plan to provide more practical examples to cover a wide range of use cases and simulation configurations.
-
Update documentation: As GPGPU-Sim itself is updated and GPU technology evolves, we will regularly update the documentation to reflect the latest technical advances and best practices.
-
Community Contributions: Community members are encouraged to contribute documentation and code comments to improve this manual together.
-
Make an English version of the manual: Recognizing the impact of the global community of GPU researchers and developers, we plan to create an English version of the manual to make it accessible to a wider audience.
