Using Incorrect Speculation to Prefetch Data in a Concurrent Multithreaded Processor
Concurrent multithreaded architectures exploit both instruction-level and thread-level parallelism through a combination of branch prediction and thread-level control speculation. ...

Improving Prediction for Procedure Returns with Return-address-stack Repair Mechanisms
This paper evaluates several mechanisms for repairing the return-address stack after branch mispredictions. The return-address stack is a small but important structure for achievi...
