	   	COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE SIMULATION 

Since the beginning of electronic computers, computer architecture 
simulation technology has been the most critical(and often invisible) 
engine that moves the whole computer industry forward, generations 
after generations. 

Computer Architects rely on simulation tools to explore different architectural 
alternatives and design tradeoffs. Computer System Vendors need to 
access architecture simulation tools 9 to 12 months before the arrival of 
the real processor samples, so that they can ship out system products when 
the processor is generally available. Computer architecture simulation tools 
are also valuable to university students and professors for their research and 
instruction activities. 

The purpose of this special issue is to provide a common place for reporting 
the advance of the state of the art in the computer architecture
simulation technology. Specific topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:

	o.   Computer architecture  simulation techniques

	     *   Efficient methods for fast architecture simulation
	     *   Cycle-by-cycle-accurate architecture simulation
	     *   Techniques for fast retargeting architecture simulation
	     *   Efficient I/O system simulation techniques
	     *   Efficient TLB/cache/memory system simulation techniques
	     *   Efficient graphic system simulation techniques

	o.   Program trace collection and processing techniques

             *   Hardware-based techniques
             *   Software-based techniques
	     *   Architecture support for tracing 
	     *   Trace reduction/compression techniques
	     *   Trace selection and validation techniques.

	o.   Applications using computer architecture simulators

	     *   Program execution profilers/monitors
	     *   Computer system simulation
	     *   Multiprocessor system simulation

	o.   Update on building projects in industry and academia.

	PRACTICAL, DISTRIBUTED AND PARALLEL SIMULATION
_____________________________________________________________

Computer simulation is being used to solve problems of 
increasing size and complexity over an ever expanding range 
of applications.  To meet these challenges, the simulations 
are often executed on multiple processor systems ranging from 
shared memory computers, to clusters of workstations, to 
distributed memory multiprocessors.

Papers are sought from practioners and researchers solving 
large-scale, practical simulation problems using multiple 
processor systems.  Papers should stress the practical 
aspects of the work, what is novel about the approach, how it 
expands the application and use of simulation, and the 
lessons learned from the projects.

Relevant types of simulation include, but are not limited to:

	SIMNET
	Training simulation
	Distributed Interactive Simulation

	Real time simulation
	Heterogenous computing systems
	Hardware-in-the-loop simulation

	Virtual reality
	Decision support systems

Relevant application areas include, but are not limited to:

	Communication systems
	Telecommunication systems
	Transportation systems
	Military systems
	Financial applications
	Environmental systems
	Computational biology, chemistry, and physics

Other relevant topics include synchronization methods, 
scalability, programming languages, performance studies, and 
visualization.
