In this paper we present the impact of dynamically translating any sequence of instructions into combinational logic. The proposed approach combines a reconfigurable architecture ...
The load instructions of some of the bioinformatics applications in the BioPerf suite possess interesting characteristics: only a few static loads cover almost the entire dynamic ...
Accelerating program performance via SIMD vector units is very common in modern processors, as evidenced by the use of SSE, MMX, VSE, and VSX SIMD instructions in multimedia, scien...
Increasing the number of instruction queue (IQ) entries in a dynamically scheduled processor exposes more instruction-level parallelism, leading to higher performance. However, in...

For highest performance, a modern microprocessor must be able to determine if an instruction is ready in the same cycle in which it is to be selected for execution. This creates a...
