Method for estimating statistics of properties of memory system interactions among contexts in a computer system

摘要

A method analyses memory transaction processed by memories of a computer system. The method selects a set of addresses of the memories. State information from a plurality of consecutive predetermined memory transactions to the selected addresses are recorded while the selected transactions are processed by the memories. The selecting and the recording steps are repeated until a termination condition is reached. Then, the recorded state information is statistically analysed to estimate statistics of properties of the memory interactions among contexts in the computer system.
