Multi-core processors naturally exploit thread-level parallelism (TLP). However, extracting instruction-level parallelism (ILP) from individual applications or threads is still a ...
Clusters of PC containing mostly general purpose hardware have become more and more usable for high performance computing tasks in the past few years. Clustering existing systems ...
Multi-processor architectures have gained interest recently because of their ability to exploit programmable silicon parallelism at acceptable power-efficiency figures. Despite th...
As semiconductor feature sizes decrease, interconnect delay is becoming a dominant component of processor cycle times. This creates a critical need to shift microarchitectural des...
