RSIM classifies memory operations at various levels of the memory hierarchy into hits and misses. Misses are further classified into cold, conflict, capacity, and coherence misses. The method for distinguishing between conflict and capacity misses is discussed in Section 13.6. Statistics on the average latency of various classes of memory operations, MSHR occupancy, and prefetching effectiveness are also provided by default. RSIM also provides statistics on bus utilization, write-buffer utilization, network contention, traffic, the usage of the network switch buffers, and the types of packets sent in the network (based on packet length and distance traveled).
