Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for multi-core instruction-set simulation. The proposed method identifies the shared data segment and the dependency relationship between the different cores and thus effectively reduces the number of sync points and lowers the synchronization overhead, allowing multi-core instruction-set simulation to be performed more rapidly while ensuring that the simulation results are accurate. In addition, the present invention also discloses a device for multi-core instruction-set simulation.
