CS352: Final Project

C++ Files: The following files can be used as a starting point for the project.
• Makefile
  Configuration file for building your project. You will probably need to make changes to it as your project evolves. Look in its comments for more details, or in the man page:

  $ man make
  

• funcs.cc
  This file contains parseParams(), a function to help parse the command line parameters that are passed to our cache simulator.
  Note: Command line options have changed:
  • -c = cache capacity
  • -b = blocksize
  • -a = associativity
  The parseParams function takes care of this, just call it with the appropriate variables. Remember to check the return value of the function as in main.cc.
• main.cc
  Meant to be the top-level entry point for the project, it currently simply illustrates the use of parseParams() to parse the commandline.
• funcs.h
  Header file for funcs.cc
• io.cc
  Sample code for reading the input trace format.
Java:
• cache_sim.java
  Top level entry point for the project. Currently contains the parseParams routine.
• io.java
  Contains routines for reading in data and writing out final cache statistics and contents. You should move these routines to your own classes and code.

• checker
  Note that we will use a variation of this script for grading, so please verify that it can parse your output correctly. To run this program, download it and then change the file to executable. You can do this using chmod +x checker. Then use checker outputfile to check the output file.

• Input file: sample_input_file.trace
• Output file from above for configuration -c4 -b32 -a4 : sample_output_file.txt
