On a N-way issue superscalar processor, the front end instruction fetch engine must deliver instructions to the execution core at a sustained rate higher than N instructions per c...
The drive for low-power, high performance computation coupled with the extremely high design costs for ASIC designs, has driven a number of designers to try to create a flexible, ...

This paper studies an interesting yet less explored behavior of memory access instructions, called access region locality. Unlike the traditional temporal and spatial data localit...
This paper describes an investigation of potential advantages and risks of applying an aggressive asynchronous design methodology to Intel Architecture. RAPPID ("Revolving As...
