Detailed Cycle-Level Simulation model of DRACKSim:

• Go in directory DRACKSim-Detailed and follow the instructions in readme.md file

Traced-based Simulation model of DRACKSim:

• Go in directory DRackSim-Trace and follow the instructions in readme.md file

For validation of DRACKSim-Detailed with gem5:

• Clone the copy of gem5 to you system with #Version 22.1.0.0
• Apply gem5.patch to the original gem5 code, this will calibrate different latencies and add suitable cache-levels to match DRACKSim simulator to the validation target
• You can use the commands mentioned in gem5_commands_to_validate.sh, that we use to validate
