A memory view generator evaluates a module design file characterizing a memory module to generate a set of port functions that defines operations of ports on a memory module for a memory view file. The memory view generator parses a memory module bitmap characterizing a physical layout of the memory module to determine a physical memory model of address bits, an order of rows, an order of columns, an order of banks and data bits of the memory module for the physical memory view file. A circuit simulator instantiates a memory module and provide simulation results based on a simulation memory model of the memory module, the set of port functions and the physical memory model. The memory view generator analyzes the simulation results to determine operational performance characteristics of the memory module for the memory view file.
