[Gems-users] Message Content

[Michael Zhen WANG <zhen.wang@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

>From the network stats, I can get how many messages are sent by each switch. I added a few codes to get the time when each message was sent out. I also want to know what are the contents of each message. From Message.h and Message.h, there are only timing information of the message, no content information. Does anyone know why no content information is included? How can the whole system work without the message content?

I have one guess but don't know whether it's correct. Ruby is the timing/performance simulation of the cache/memory system. The message contents are passed in simics and ruby introduce corresponding latencies. Is my understanding correct?

Best
