A modular simulator for interconnection networks that receives synthetic traffic patterns or traces of parallel applications as inputs, and provides insight on network performance.
FOGSim models dragonfly interconnection networks using synthetic traffic patterns or traces of parallel applications as inputs. FOGSim results provides insight on network performance latency, throughput, traffic unfairness, response time to transient traffic, etc. FOGSim has been used for research on topology, routing, deadlock avoidance, and congestion avoidance mechanisms, among others.
