While the analytical instrument, changing the sector configuration

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To analyze the configuration of a sector cache, with accuracy.SOLUTION: An analysis device 20 collects sampling data D1, including the number of accesses and the number of cache misses obtained by sampling, while switching the sector configuration of a cache memory during execution of an application program 11 from a processor 10. The analysis device 20, having acquired the sampling data D1, calculates cache miss ratio, by dividing the number of cache misses by the number of accesses for each sector configuration.
