Abstract :
A number of errors have been discovered in the paper "Synthetic traces for trace-driven simulation of cache memories" by D. Thjebaut, J.L. Wolf and H.S. Stone (ibid., vol. 41, pp. 388-410, Apr. 1992). The authors of that paper have corrected some of these errors and presented them in a corrigendum (ibid., vol. 42, pp. 635-636, May 1993). The remaining errors are corrected and presented in this correspondence.<>
