The "Simplicity does not preceed complexity, but follows it" release.
Models:
+ * We can specify the smpi latency/bandwidth factor with command line
+ add --cfg=smpi/bw_factor:"threshold0:value0;...;thresholdN:valueN"
+ or add --cfg=smpi/lat_factor:"threshold0:value0;...;thresholdN:valueN"
+ You can also use the "config tag" from platform file by adding this line
+ <prop id="smpi/bw_factor" value="threshold0:value0;...;thresholdN:valueN"></prop>
+ (see "example/platforms/tag_config.xml" to use "config tag").
+ Note that the command line supersedes the platform file configuration.
* Change the correction factors used in LMM model, according to
the lastest experiments described in INRIA RR-7821.
Accuracy should be improved this way.
+ (TODO: this is not true in the code, yet)
* Use the partial invalidation optimization by default for the
network too. Should produce the exact same results, only faster.
* Major cleanup in surf to merge models and split some optimization
* Use now crosstraffic keyword instead of the terribly missleading
fullduplex keyword. It is activated by default now in the current
default model, use --cfg=network/crosstraffic:0 to turn it off.
+ * Ongoing refactoring the model parsing to make XML files optional
+ (more work is needed here to fully achieve this goal)
Simix:
* Stabilize the parallel execution mode of user contexts
