Things I Am Doing

From PEL Wiki

Different things I can do to make my case:

Contents 1 Instrument the O/S to collect statistics 2 Simulators 3 Queuing Theory (with stats from:) 4 Hardware 5 Things I can do to be productive now:

Instrument the O/S to collect statistics

Simulators

• Trace-Driven, Traces from:
  • Simulator: Simics, Bochs, etc.
  • Hardware,
  • O/S
• Statistical: ala Simflex
• Full

Queuing Theory (with stats from:)

• Simulator
• Hardware (PCIe, TLA, EMON)
• O/S
• Rules of Thumb
• Published works

Hardware

• Traces from TLA @ uP or @ DIMM
• FPGA Board @ PCIe

Things I can do to be productive now:

• Instrument O/S
• Strip O/S
• Collect Performance Counter Data
• Do FPGA design conversion
• LinuxBIOS work
• Design Experiments (Study Ideas)
• Look for an FPGA conference (Conference List)
• Find file system and DB workloads for Benchmarks
• Figure out how I am going to get to the SATA drive (SATA and Linux)
