In modern computer systems loops present a great deal of opportunities for increasing Instruction Level and Thread Level Parallelism. Loop unrolling is a technique used to obtain ...
Recently, the microprocessor industry has moved toward chip multiprocessor (CMP) designs as a means of utilizing the increasing transistor counts in the face of physical and micro...
Simultaneous Multithreading machines fetch and execute instructions from multiple instruction streams to increase system utilization and speedup the execution of jobs. When there ...
This paper presents the Mitosis framework, which is a combined hardware-software approach to speculative multithreading, even in the presence of frequent dependences among threads....
Simultaneous multithreading (SMT) represents a fundamental shift in processor capability. SMT's ability to execute multiple threads simultaneously within a single CPU offers ...
