In many workloads, 25% to 50% of instructions have slack allowing them to be delayed without impacting performance. To exploit this slack, processors may implement more power-efï¬...
Abstract. High end routers are targeted at providing worst case throughput guarantees over latency. Caches on the other hand are meant to help latency not throughput in a tradition...
This paper presents an approach for integrating fault-tolerance techniques into microprocessors by utilizing instruction redundancy as well as time redundancy. Smaller and smaller...
Recent research on processor microarchitecture suggests using instruction criticality as a metric to guide hardware control policies. Fields et al. [3, 4] have proposed a directed...
