Interrupt Simulation

This project simulates the handling of CPU execution, system calls, and interrupt events based on a provided trace file. The simulation uses a vector table to manage interrupts and generates a detailed log of execution events.

Files in the Project

Source Code

• interrupts.h: Header file containing structure definitions, constants, and function declarations for the simulation.
• interrupts.c: Implementation of the simulation logic, including trace file reading, event handling, and output logging.

Input Files

• trace#.txt: A file describing a sequence of events (CPU execution, SYSCALLs, and END_IOs) with durations for each event.

Output Files

• execution#.txt: The output file generated by the simulation, logs each event with timestamps, durations, and descriptions.

Test Scripts

• test#.sh: Automates the run process. Double-clicking these files will execute the tests and produce the execution.txt output.

How It Works

Simulation Flow

1. The program reads the event trace from trace.txt.
2. Outputs all logged events to execution.txt.
