SST Architectural Simulation Components and Libraries

Overview

SST (Structural Simulation Toolkit) is a software package developed by National Technology and Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC (NTESS) to explore innovations in highly concurrent systems. It provides a modular design and parallel simulation environment, allowing extensive exploration of system parameters and the ability to model large systems.

Features

  • Modular Design: SST offers a fully modular design that allows users to explore individual system parameters without making intrusive changes to the simulator.
  • Parallel Simulation Environment: The software is based on MPI (Message Passing Interface), enabling high performance and the ability to simulate large systems.
  • Innovative Capabilities: SST has been successfully used to model a wide range of concepts, from processing in memory to traditional processors connected via network interfaces and running MPI.
