I am planning on writing a simple computer architecture simulator, possibly in Smalltalk, as part of a class project. Has anyone done something like this, or have the basic framework? The simulator should be at more of a 'macro' level, split into memory, pipelines, processors, etc. These parts should be able to be broken down further to simulate different configurations (ie, different cache models, etc.). Also (since I may do this in Objective-C for speed), does anyone know how to do processes, semaphores, and other concurrency related operations in Objective-C? Darin Johnson djohnson@ucsd.edu
