hey @Adrian-2105 i am beginner to his field and i have gone through your yt videos it was nice , so can you please help me out how to go through the your code base basically i need a road-map so that i can understand how marie is implemented on top of that i can build my accelerator

I have attached the STONNE paper to this comment, so firstly I would recommend reading it: STONNE_Enabling_Cycle-Level_Microarchitectural_Simulation_for_DNN_Inference_Accelerators.pdf

I can also give you some upper-level introduction to the simulator source code, but you will need to spend time to understand and be able to work with it. The main file structure to simulate the MAERI architecture is:

• main.cpp: CLI input parsing
• STONNEmodel.cpp: main STONNE module where all the on-chip networks are created and configured
• SDMemory.cpp: memory controller of MAERI, the most important component since it orchestrates the data movement and execution
• DSNetwork.cpp & DSNetworkTop.cpp: distribution network
• MSNetwork.cpp: multiplier network
• ASNetwork.cpp: reduction network

The rest of the files mainly focus on the simulation of other kinds of architecture, so you can only focus on the ones I mentioned. To get a deeper understanding of each part, you will need to navigate through the code.

thanks a lot man
