Abstract
This paper describes a software environment that allows the rapid development and simulation of computer architectures. The system, called the Architecture Prototyping Environment (APE), is based on an object-oriented approach for hardware component description. This approach allows the formation of a class definition that does not require the writing of special-purpose simulators. In this way, computer architecture hardware components are effectively and conveniently expressed as a class library, representing basic elements of the processor. APE allows the user to define the computer architecture at the instruction set level and then to switch automatically to the lower level of the corresponding microarchitecture. APE supports the design of a computer architecture (definition phase), which is used as a starting point for the next phase for evaluating prototype behavior (test phase). APE accepts modifications of the architecture design and repeats the simulation process until architectural features match user requirements.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
