Abstract. The load-store queue (LQ-SQ) of modern superscalar processors is responsible for keeping the order of memory operations. As the performance gap between processing speed a...
Technological advances enable modern processors to utilize increasingly larger DRAMs with rising access frequencies. This is leading to high power consumption and operating temper...

In the future, if we are to continue to expect improved application performance we will have to achieve it by exploiting course-grained hardware parallelism rather then simply rel...
This paper explores an application-specific customization technique for the data cache, one of the foremost area/power consuming and performance determining microarchitectural fea...
