The IBM Full-System Simulator has been developed in conjunction with many large-system design projects built upon the IBM Power Architecture. As an execution-driven, full-system simulator, it has facilitated the evaluation of a variety of system components for core IBM initiatives, such as the STI Cell and the IBM PERCS projects. IBM Full-System Simulator for PowerPC 970 enables development teams to simulate a PowerPC 970 system in order to develop and enhance application support for this platform.
