The provided simulator can test your programs before they are deployed onto the hardware device with cycle accurate execution times.
The monitoring infrastructure allows users to add online monitoring of program behavior for better program understanding and optimization opportunities.
The profiling utilities allow users to study their program's behavior in simulation.
The instrumentation capabilities allow for detailed observation of program behavior without disturbing the simulation, and without modifying the simulator source code.
The GDB debugger hooks allow source-level debugging and integrated development and testing.
The control flow graph tool can create a graphical representation of your program's instructions that is useful for understanding how it is structured and what the compiler does with your code.
The energy analysis tool can analyze energy consumption and help to determine the battery life of your device.
The stack checker tool can be used to bind the maximum stack size used by your program.
