Re: [Gems-users] how to reproduce the experiment like LogTM or any other TMs

Hi Bobba:
    I have read this URL
"http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~david/courses/cs758/Fall2007/handouts/hw-logtm.html";
and want to run deque on target machine. I make a 16 processors and
2GB memory target running sol9 on it. I use this target compile
executable deque code and copy them back to GEMS/microbenmarks. Then
just do as tutorial indicates, however, when I run .sh file generate
by gen-scripts.py. It seems encountering some problems. The output
like this:
/********** below is the output when I run .sh file************/
n@localhost scripts]$
./deque-TM-1024ops-32bkoff-1c-2p-1t-default-None-Perfect_-Perfect_-Perfect_-10000.sh

I have traced these scripts, seeming all right.
Could you give me a hand to solve this problem. Thank you very much.
