Abstract
A programmable simulator has been developed for analyzing the performance of a class of parallel computers. The simulator provides detailed information about the timing, resource usage, and output results for an algorithm executing on the parallel computer. A user specifies the configuration and performance characteristics of the computer to be simulated. The user also describes the algorithm to be executed on the computer. The use of the simulator for QR factorization is briefly described and the results are presented. Our approach is compared with other simulation methods.<>
