In high-end processors, increasing the number of in-flight instructions can improve performance by overlapping useful processing with long-latency accesses to the main memory. Buf...
Building processors with large instruction windows has been proposed as a mechanism for overcoming the memory wall, but finding a feasible and implementable design has been an elu...
Design of wakeup-free issue queues is becoming desirable due to the increasing complexity associated with broadcast-based instruction wakeup. The effectiveness of most wakeup-free...
