Designing a cost effective superscalar architecture for x86 compatible microprocessors is a challenging task in terms of both technical difficulty and commercial value. One of the...
Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing (EPIC) architectures require the compiler to express program instruction level parallelism directly to the hardware. EPIC techniques whic...

With advances in hardware, instruction set architectures are undergoing continual evolution. As a result, compilers are under constant pressure to adapt and take full advantage of...
This paper presents the evaluation of a non-blocking, decoupled memory/execution, multithreaded architecture known as the Scheduled Dataflow (SDF). The major recent trend in digit...
Branch prediction has enabled microprocessors to increase instruction level parallelism (ILP) by allowing programs to speculatively execute beyond control boundaries. Although spe...
