Improving the performance of speculatively parallel applications on the Hydra CMP
Hydra is a chip multiprocessor (CMP) with integrated support for thread-level speculation. Thread-level speculation provides a way to parallelize sequential programs without the n...

The Potential for Using Thread-Level Data Speculation to Facilitate Automatic Parallelization
As we look to the future, and the prospect of a billion transistors on a chip, it seems inevitable that microprocessors will exploit having multiple parallel threads. To achieve t...

The Jrpm System for Dynamically Parallelizing Java Programs
We describe the Java runtime parallelizing machine (Jrpm), a complete system for parallelizing sequential programs automatically. Jrpm is based on a chip multiprocessor (CMP) with...
