SPiM version 0.05 (Ocaml Bytecode)

The SPiM simulator is packaged as a zip file, which can be installed by uncompressing the file to a suitable directory. The simulator also requires the Objective Caml System version 3.08 to be installed (available from http://caml.inria.fr/ocaml). The simulator can be used to simulate a file source.spi by typing the command "ocamlrun spim.ocaml source.spi" in a console. Once a given simulation has been started, it can be stopped by pressing Ctrl+C or closing the simulation window.

The simulation results for a given file source.spi are stored in a file source.spi.csv as a sequence of comma-separated values. The result file can be opened using a suitable spreadsheet in order to plot a graph of the results.
