Low Latency Synchronization Through Speculation
Synchronization between independently clocked regions in a high performance system is often subject to latencies of more than one clock cycle. We show how the latency can be reduce...

Speculative instruction validation for performance-reliability trade-off
With reducing feature size, increasing chip capacity, and increasing clock speed, microprocessors are becoming increasingly susceptible to transient (soft) errors. Redundant multi...

Improving cache locality for thread-level speculation
With the advent of chip-multiprocessors (CMPs), Thread-Level Speculation (TLS) remains a promising technique for exploiting this highly multithreaded hardware to improve the perfo...

Using thread-level speculation to simplify manual parallelization
In this paper, we provide examples of how thread-level speculation (TLS) simplifies manual parallelization and enhances its performance. A number of techniques for manual parallel...

Speculative supplier identification for reducing power of interconnects in snoopy cache coherence protocols
In this work we reduce interconnect power dissipation in Symmetric Multiprocessors or SMPs. We revisit snoopy cache coherence protocols and reduce unnecessary interconnect activit...
