[Gems-users] Which protocol?

[mehmetderin.harmanci@xxxxxxx]

  Hello,

    I'm trying to setup two systems using Ruby:

     1) A 4-cored private L1- and L2- cached design.
     2) A 4-cored  private L1- but shared_L2- cached design (L2 is shared
        but physically it is 4 banks of L2 caches connected through a
        network)

    Which protocols in Ruby can I use to simulate those systems? Should I
    write one by myself? If so which one I should take as a starting point?
    (For the moment MSI_MOSI_CMP_directory seemed as a good candidate for the
     second design but I have no idea on how to do things for the first
     -although it is a simpler design- )


       All your help is very much appreciated,

          Thanks,

             Derin Harmanci
