Tool flow of the Design Space Exploration tool. The MYINSTALL tool prepares the whole environment and performs automated regression tests in the end. The MYDSE tool takes care of the experiment loop and the reordering of several output files generated by each simulation. Finally, the GTCOLLECTS and GTGRAPH tools collect the results, perform validation and statistical operations on the results, and plot the data in a tabular or graphical format [19].
