The instruction sets of general-purpose microprocessors are designed to offer good performance across a wide range of programs. The size and complexity of the instruction sets, how...
There are four crucial issues associated with performance simulators: simulator retargetability, simulator validation, simulation speed and simulation accuracy. This paper documen...

Modern microprocessors offer more instruction-level parallelism than most programs and compilers can currently exploit. The resulting disparity between a machine's peak and a...
In this paper we present a novel processor microarchitecture that relieves three of the most important bottlenecks of superscalar processors: the serialization imposed by true dep...
This paper presents the evaluation of a non-blocking, decoupled memory/execution, multithreaded architecture known as the Scheduled Dataflow (SDF). The major recent trend in digit...
