Exploration platform targets Android apps

The Android on VisualSim architecture exploration platform allows system designers of Android devices to use this platform for hardware-software architecture exploration and power and performance analysis of consumer devices. This approach eliminates the overhead of the pipeline in a cycle-accurate simulation, thus achieving 10 to 20 MIPS for a cycle-based or approximately-timed simulation.

The solution consists of a caching structure and profiler for QEMU-based Android development platform, a set of hardware templates in VisualSim to emulate the most common hardware platforms, and an integrator to execute the application profile on the VisualSim hardware model.
