We describe the Slice Processor micro-architecture that implements a generalized operation-based prefetching mechanism. Operation-based prefetchers predict the series of operation...

In general-purpose microprocessors, recent trends have pushed towards 64-bit word widths, primarily to accommodate the large addressing needs of some programs. Many integer proble...
Researchers have recently proposed coupling small- to mediumscale multiprocessors to build large-scale shared memory machines, known as multigrain shared memory systems. Multigrai...
A new technique for design centering, and for polytope approximation of the feasible region for a design are presented. In the rst phase, the feasible region is approximated by a ...
