    9 Running ALMOS on TSAR virtual prototype requires the installation of several open-source technologies like a GCC cross-compiler, SocLib virtual prototyping library, SystemC, SystemCASS and TSAR modules. To simplify the task of building and configuring a correct development environment, ALMOS comes with a stand-alone and ready-to-use distribution.
     9Running ALMOS on the TSAR virtual prototype requires the installation of several open-source technologies like a GCC cross-compiler for Mips (el), [http://www.soclib.fr SocLib] virtual prototyping library, [https://www-asim.lip6.fr/trac/tsar TSAR] related components, and [https://www-asim.lip6.fr/trac/systemcass SystemCASS]. To simplify the task of building and configuring a correct development environment, ALMOS comes with a stand-alone and ready-to-use distribution.

    11 This distribution enables you to :
    12  * Write/port your own applications for ALMOS
    13  * Run these applications on TSAR using different number of cores ranging from 4 to 1024 cores.
    14  *
     11Mainly, this distribution enables you to:
     12 * Port your own applications and libraries to ALMOS.
     13 * Run these applications on TSAR using several configurations ranging from 4 to 1024 cores.
     14 * Analyse the performance of your applications or the totality of the software-stack on a large-scale many-core.
     15
     16Upon your needs you can also use this distribution to:
     17 * Validate and evaluate any hardware evolution/development in a TSAR based architectures.
     18 * Validate and evaluate any kernel new features or updates.
     19 * Experiment and develop new parallel programming libraries and run-times for a large-scale single-chip many-core.

    17 This distribution contains the following resources :
     22 
     23== Getting Started ==
    1824
    19  * ALMOS
    20    * The headers and static libraries
    21    * The kernel and its bootloader
    22  * TSAR
    23    * Accurate Full-system simulator
    24    * TTY consoles and Framebufer utilities
    25  * GCC mipsel bar-metal corss-compiler
     25== Setup ==

     27Download the latest stable distribution from this [htdocs:almos-tsar-mipsel.tbz2 link]. Decompress the .tbz2 file:
     28
     29{{{
     30tar jxf almos-tsar-mipsel.tbz2
     31}}}
     32
     33Now you have a sub-directory named ''almos-tsar-mipsel'' ... Congratulation you are done !
