Build the OpenCL application as you would to run it on an NVIDIA GPU. -2. Set GPGPUSIM_ROOT to the top level of your GPGPU-Sim installation. -3. Set NVOPENCL_LIBDIR to the location of libOpenCL.so distributed by NVIDIA - (usually /usr/lib or /usr/lib64) -4. Run make in the top level GPGPU-Sim directory (after step 3) -5.
