MQSim Edited.

Usage in Linux

Run following commands:

$ make
$ ./MQSim -i <SSD Configuration File> -w <Workload Definition File>

Usage in Windows

1. Open the MQSim.sln solution file in MS Visual Studio 2017 or later.
2. Set the Solution Configuration to Release (it is set to Debug by default).
3. Compile the solution.
4. Run the generated executable file (e.g., MQSim.exe) either in command line mode or by clicking the MS Visual Studio run button. Please specify the paths to the files containing the 1) SSD configurations, and 2) workload definitions.

Example command line execution:

$ MQSim.exe -i <SSD Configuration File> -w <Workload Definition File> 

Edited point.

1. memory leak problem is solved
2. precondition of MQ Sim operates, when Ideal mapping setting of sdd configration is true.
3. FLIN Algorithm[3] is partially implemented till 2 stage. you can use FLIN policy of TSU.
4. CIF Algorithm for improving overhead of FLIN Algorithm is added. you can use CIF policy of TSU.
