Hardware for Speculative Run-Time Parallelization in Distributed Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
Run-time parallelization is often the only way to execute the code in parallel when data dependence information is incomplete at compile time. This situation is common in many imp...

An Integrated Hardware/Software Data Prefetching Scheme for Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
Both hardware and software prefetching have been shown to be e ective in tolerating the large memory latencies inherent in shared-memory multiprocessors however, both types of pre...

Architectural Support for Block Transfers in a Shared-Memory Multiprocessor
This paper examines how the performance of a shared-memory multiprocessor can be improved by including hardware support for block transfers. A system similar to the Hector multipr...

Implementation of Atomic Primitives on Distributed Shared Memory Multiprocessors
In this paper we consider several hardware implementations of the general-purpose atomic primitives fetch and Φ, compare and swap, load linked, and store conditionalon large-scal...
