This paper investigates helper threads that improve performance by prefetching data on behalf of an application’s main thread. The focus is data prefetch helper threads that lac...
The capability of performing architectural exploration has become essential for embedded microprocessor design in System-On-Chip. While many retargetable instruction set (ISA) sim...
Current microprocessors incorporate techniques to exploit instruction-level parallelism (ILP). However, previous work has shown that these ILP techniques are less effective in rem...
