Project Overview
The EMIN project is a component of an ongoing long-term strategy to
undertake quantitative evaluation of computer architectures through
the use of HASE. It involves the evaluation of a variety of
multiprocessor interconnection networks.
We have set up a simulation testbed containing simple processor models
which can generate network activity corresponding to that found in
standard benchmarks used in the evaluation of real parallel systems.
Each of the different networks of interest is then instantiated in
the testbed, and its performance observed.
The EMIN Project was funded by EPSRC under Grant GR/K19716 and ran
from December 1994 to November 1997.

SimJava Models
These simjava multiprocessor interconnection network
simulation models may be run within a web browser supporting Java 1.1.
They have been tested on Sun's hotjava browser and Netscape's
communicator version 4.04 preview release 2. They won't run on
earlier browsers or on a browser which does not support Java 1.1
properly (like the standard Netscape 4.04).
