Abstract. Multimedia and network processing applications make extensive use of subword data. Since registers are capable of holding a full data word, when a subword variable is ass...
Because they are based on large content-addressable memories, load-store queues (LSQ) present implementation challenges in superscalar processors, especially as issue width and nu...
Recent studies on value locality reveal that many instructions are frequently executed with a small variety of inputs. This paper proposes an approach that integrates architecture...
Recently there has been significant interest in employing probabilistic techniques for fault localization. Using dynamic dependence information for multiple passing runs, learnin...
Modern processors rely on memory dependence prediction to execute load instructions as early as possible, speculating that they are not dependent on an earlier, unissued store. To...
