Low overhead parallel-task linux based simulator: Add Example

  1. Prepare Modules

    $ mkdir add
    $ cd add

    Copy this example application: add.c
    Copy this input file: add_input.dat

    $ c2mod.py add.c
    Module "example1" created with 1 input(s) and 1 output(s).
    Module "example2" created with 1 input(s) and 1 output(s).

    Total 2 module(s) created.

    Copy these modules to the AsapMap modules folder

    $ cp *.mod /net/pizza/vcl/lib/asapmap/modules/

        TIP: put this in your .cshrc file in your home folder:
        alias copymod 'cp *.mod /net/pizza/vcl/lib/asapmap/modules/'
        then just use the command copymod each time you want to copy over the modules.

  2. Create Application

    $ asapmap

    Create this simple application

    For the input, right click and select Primary Input
    For the output, right click and select Primary Output



    Save the application to XML file (File -> Save As...)
    Name the output file as add.xml

  3. Simulate Output

    $ runptsim.py add.c

    test_gen: finished scanning all of input
    test_read: finished writing all of output
    application called MPI_Abort(MPI_COMM_WORLD, 0) - process 3,
    [mpiexec@pepper] ONE OF THE PROCESSES TERMINATED BADLY: CLEANING UP
    APPLICATION TERMINATED WITH THE EXIT STRING: Terminated (signal 15)

    This error message is normal and is a result of the program exiting through the use of an 'abort' command.

    The output can be found in the file     chip_output_data.m inside your working folder.
    You can compare your output with the data in chip_output_data.m
