Fast Track: A Software System for Speculative Program Optimization
—Fast track is a software speculation system that enables unsafe optimization of sequential code. It speculatively runs optimized code to improve performance and then checks the ...

Fast Track: Supporting Unsafe Optimizations with Software Speculation
The use of multi-core, multi-processor machines is opening new opportunities for software speculation, where program code is speculatively executed to improve performance at the a...

Reactive Techniques for Controlling Software Speculation
Aggressive software speculation holds significant potential, because it enables program transformations to reduce the program’s critical path. Like any form of speculation, how...

Software speculative multithreading for Java
We apply speculative multithreading to sequential Java programs in software to achieve speedup on existing multiprocessors. A common speculation library supports both Java bytecod...

A real system evaluation of hardware atomicity for software speculation
In this paper we evaluate the atomic region compiler abstraction by incorporating it into a commercial system. We find that atomic regions are simple and intuitive to integrate i...
