Hello Sheng, Thanks for your reply.As far your suggestion I have simulated gems with both 4 and 3 VNs. With 4 (0,1,2,3) VNs, V_network_3 remained inactive throughout the simulation and the average loads for last three 3 VCs (3 VCs/VNs) also resulted in 0 flits/cycle. However, with 3 VNs, all the networks and VCs are utilized. So can I conclude that that MOESI in gems 2.1.1 uses 3 virtual networks?
