   We are a group of M.Sc. students working on a project to model and
monitor the performance of a multi-processor computer system ( specifically
the Encore Multimax computer here at the university of Newcastle upon
Tyne ). At this initial stage of the project we are attempting to gather
information about any of the following areas :-

 1 - Information/References concerning similiar studies.

 2 - Tools to allow the monitoring of the multiprocessor system.

   Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

hello all ..

I am looking for references ,pointers to articles 
that deal with processor , architecture modelling.
If theres enough interest I will post a summary
to the net.

Thanks,

Rajeev
