Within two or three technology generations, processor architects will face a number of major challenges. Wire delays will become critical, and power considerations will temper the ...
Trace-level reuse is based on the observation that some traces (dynamic sequences of instructions) are frequently repeated during the execution of a program, and in many cases, th...
