# This script builds a complete HMC device composed of vault controllers,
# serial links, the main internal crossbar, and an external hmc controller.
#
# - VAULT CONTROLLERS:
# Instances of the HMC_2500_x32 class with their functionality specified in
# dram_ctrl.cc
#
# - THE MAIN XBAR:
# This component is simply an instance of the NoncoherentXBar class, and its
# parameters are tuned to [2].
#
# - SERIAL LINKS:
# SerialLink is a simple variation of the Bridge class, with the ability to
# account for the latency of packet serialization. We assume that the
# serializer component at the transmitter side does not need to receive the
# whole packet to start the serialization. But the deserializer waits for
# the complete packet to check its integrity first.
# * Bandwidth of the serial links is not modeled in the SerialLink component
# itself. Instead bandwidth/port of the HMCController has been adjusted to
# reflect the bandwidth delivered by 1 serial link.
#
# - HMC CONTROLLER:
# Contains a large buffer (modeled with Bridge) to hide the access latency
# of the memory cube. Plus it simply forwards the packets to the serial
# links in a round-robin fashion to balance load among them.
# * It is inferred from the standard [1] and the literature [3] that serial
# links share the same address range and packets can travel over any of
# them so a load distribution mechanism is required among them.
