Browsable image of the model.
"This is a model of a Fax Machine. This model attempts to emulate the interaction between the electronics and a Mechanical device.
The printer gets requests from the PCI bus, writes to cache, does processing and puts them in a Queue. When the Printer head requests data, it removes it from the Queue and delivers it. The goal is always have data ready when the Head makes a request.
If the data is not available in the cache, it needs to swap older \ data from the memory.
Analysis
1. Vary the CPU_Speed and Cache_Access. See how the latency and power plot change.
2. Vary the Memory_Size and see how the hit-ratio changes.
3. Modify the Trans_src to determine the maximum Printer Head request speed?
Analysis
1. Job throughput
2. Response time for each job
3. Cache space availbility for a job"
