First Time Use

1. Checkout sesc

 svn co svn+ssh://mada0.cse.ucsc.edu/mada/server/svn/sesc

1. Build support libraries

 pushd .
 cd sesc/src/libsesctherm/levmar-2.1.3/
 gmake
 popd

1. Build sesc

 mkdir build
 cd build
 ../sesc/configure --enable-sesctherm --enable-power
 gmake

1. Build sesctherm

 gmake sesctherm

1. Get some sample configuration

 cp ../sesc/confs/amd.conf sesc.conf
 cp ../sesc/confs/amd.flp .
 gmake power.conf

1. Run some small benchmark

 ./sesc.mem -cpower.conf ../sesc/tests/crafty < ../sesc/tests/tt.in

1. Check results

 ../sesc/scripts/report.pl -a

1. Thermal simulations

There should be 2 files sesc_crafty.?????? and sesc_crafty.therm.??????. The .therm. file is the power trace.

 ./sesctherm -c power.conf sesc_crafty.therm.?????? sesc_crafty.therm.?????? sesc_crafty.therm.?????? sesc_crafty.therm.??????

sesctherm reads the sesc_crafty.therm.foofoo file and uses the power.conf thermal/package characteristics.
