SIMULATION DEVICE, SIMULATION METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM

A simulation device executes simulation of a program including a first function and a second function that are similar to each other. An address information storage unit stores address information in which a first start address and a first end address of the first function are associated with a second start address and a second end address of the second function. When an original address is in between the first start address and the first end address, an address rearrangement unit rearranges the original address to between the second start address and the second end address as a processing address. An evaluation unit executes cache simulation on the processing address, to evaluate whether to be a cache hit or a cache miss.
