A Parallel Simulation Framework For Multicore Systems

Installation Instructions

If you are on Ubuntu (>= 14.04), just run setup.sh script in the root directory after QSim is installed. This will link the manifold to the QSim library specified by $QSIM_PREFIX variable, download multi-thread benchmarks supported by manifold, and build the manifold components and simulators.

Manifold now integrates KitFox multi-physics library to simulate physical phenomena including power, thermal and lifetime reliability models. After KitFox framework is installed and exported to system variable $KITFOX_PREFIX, the setup.sh script will configure manifold to enable KitfoxProxy that interacts with the given KitFox framekwork. The lastest KitFox source code tarball can be found here. Please refer to KitFox user manual for details.

Users under other Linux distributions, please consult instructions in manifold document.
