### STEP 1: Download the VMPlayer image, unzip it and start it
# (Mac users you need VMWare Fusion - ignore the errors about CPU functionality)
wget http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~acr31/sicsa/m5/grid-appliance-m5mcpat.zip

### STEP 2: execute m5 with the matrix1 program (this takes about 30 seconds on my workstation)
m5/build/ALPHA_SE/m5.opt m5/configs/example/se.py -d -c matrix/matrix1.out  --caches --l2cache --l2_size=8kB --l1d_size=4kB

### STEP 3: convert the m5 output in to an XML file for mcpat to use
perl m5-mcpat.pl m5out/stats.txt m5out/config.ini mcpat-template.xml > matrix1-results.xml

### STEP 4: run the mcpat wrapper to run mcpat (this takes about 30 seconds)
cd mcpat0.8_r274
perl ../mcpat-exec.pl ../matrix1-results.xml
