Slipstream Processors: Improving both Performance and Fault Tolerance
Processors execute the full dynamic instruction stream to arrive at the final output of a program, yet there exist shorter instruction streams that produce the same overall effec...

Improving CC-NUMA Performance Using Instruction-Based Prediction
We propose Instruction-based Prediction as a means to optimize directory-based cache coherent NUMA shared-memory. Instruction-based prediction is based on observing the behavior o...

Improving the Accuracy and Performance of Memory Communication Through Renaming
As processors continue to exploit more instruction level parallelism, a greater demand is placed on reducing the e ects of memory access latency. In this paper, we introduce a nov...
