AGCS - Modular, Extensible and Portable Computer Memory Simulator

This paper describes the design and the implementation of a computer memory simulator which is modular, extensible and portable. It enables the simulation of various memory-related events from the aspect of the running program. The model includes the algorithms for memory allocation, garbage collection, stack behavior, etc. The simulation uses traces obtained by running the actual programs (benchmarks) written in any programming language. The simulator fulfills its main purpose: to simplify the development of algorithms for memory allocation and garbage collection. The algorithms can be easily modeled, validated, tested and compared in order to select the most efficient one.
