In this paper, we look at two issues which could affect the performance of value prediction on wide-issue ILP processors. One is the large number of accesses to the value predicti...
Branch prediction mechanisms are becoming commonplace within current generation processors. Dynamic branch predictors, albeit able to predict branches quite accurately in average,...
Grid applications that use a considerable number of processors for their computations need effective predictions of the expected computation times on the different nodes. Currentl...
Modern processors used in embedded systems are becoming increasingly powerful, having features like caches and pipelines to speedup execution. While execution speed of embedded so...
The use of the Java programming language for implementing server-side application logic is increasing in popularity, yet there is very little known about the architectural require...
