The impact of wrong-path memory references in cache-coherent multiprocessor systems
The core of current-generation high-performance multiprocessor systems is out-of-order execution processors with aggressive branch prediction. Despite their relatively high branch...

Speculative Data-Driven Multithreading
Mispredicted branches and loads that miss in the cache cause the majority of retirement stalls experienced by sequential processors; we call these critical instructions. Despite t...

Accurately modeling speculative instruction fetching in trace-driven simulation
Performance evaluation of modern, highly speculative, out-of-order microprocessors and the corresponding production of detailed, valid, accurate results have become serious challe...
