| Running the Titan Benchmarks |
| ---------------------------- |
| |
| This tutorial describes how to run the :ref:`Titan benchmarks <titan_benchmarks>` with VTR. |
| |
| Integrating the Titan benchmarks into VTR |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| |
| The Titan benchmarks take up a large amount of disk space and are not distributed directly with VTR. |
| |
| The Titan benchmarks can be automatically integrated into the VTR source tree by running the following from the root of the VTR source tree: |
| |
| .. code-block:: console |
| |
| $ make get_titan_benchmarks |
| |
| which downloads and extracts the benchmarks into the VTR source tree: |
| |
| .. code-block:: console |
| |
| Warning: A typical Titan release is a ~1GB download, and uncompresses to ~10GB. |

| Titan benchmarks: vtr_flow/benchmarks/titan_blif |
| |
| Once completed all the Titan benchmark BLIF netlists can be found under ``$VTR_ROOT/vtr_flow/benchmarks/titan_blif``, and the Titan architectures under ``$VTR_ROOT/vtr_flow/arch/titan``. |
| |
| .. note:: :term:`$VTR_ROOT` corresponds to the root of the VTR source tree. |
| |
| Running benchmarks manually |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| |
| Once the benchmarks have been integrated into VTR they can be run manually. |
| |
| For example, the follow uses :ref:`VPR` to implement the ``neuron`` benchmark onto the ``startixiv_arch.timing.xml`` architecture at a :option:`channel width <vpr --route_chan_width>` of 300 tracks: |
| |
| .. code-block:: console |
| |
| $ vpr $VTR_ROOT/vtr_flow/arch/titan/stratixiv_arch.timing.xml $VTR_ROOT/vtr_flow/benchmarks/titan_blif/neuron_stratixiv_arch_timing.blif --route_chan_width 300 |
