Can we run multiple instances of NVDLA minerva model on smaug .

If we can run multiple instances 4-layer Minerva model at a time ? If yes how can we?

Aladdin simulates a single accelerated kernel in isolation. Multi-tenant systems are not possible; however, you can instantiate four copies of the NVDLA module and run a single model on each one in parallel. This is supported with the --num-accels flag. You would use that to generate multiple traces , then configure the system to use all of them in simulation.

If I wanted to estimate metrics like power and time for NVDLA models.How do we do it on smaug.

NVDLA is modeled using Aladdin, so Aladdin provides the power and cycles modeling for you.
