Abstract
Numerous proposals for memory controller (MC) designs have been exposed to the research community. Interest has since been growing in the area of computer architecture and real-time systems to improve the throughput of the system and/or guarantee timing requirements through novel scheduling algorithms. Consequently, comprehensive simulators are highly demanded since they provide an infrastructure for development of new ideas effectively without re-implementing the other parts of the hardware. Although there has been several proposals for off-chip memory device simulators, there is a shortage in their MC counterparts. In this letter, we propose MCsim, an extensible and cycle-accurate MC simulator. Designed as an integrable environment, MCsim is able to run as a trace-based simulator as well as provide an interface to connect with external CPU and memory device simulators.

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
