This paper explores defects found in a high volume microprocessor when shipping at a low defect level. A brief description of the manufacturing flow along with definition of DPM i...
Much of the previous work on modulo scheduling has targeted numeric programs, in which, often, the majority of the loops are well-behaved loop-counter-based loops without early ex...
For many programs, especially integer codes, untolerated load instruction latencies account for a significant portion of total execution time. In this paper, we present the desig...

Hybrid processors are HW/SW co-designed processors that leverage blocked-execution, the execution of regions of instructions as atomic blocks, to facilitate aggressive speculative...
Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) databases include a suite of features -- disk-resident B-trees and heap files, locking-based concurrency control, support for multi-threading ...
