In contemporary out-of-order superscalar design, high IPC is mainly achieved by exposing high instruction level parallelism (ILP). Scaling issue window size can certainly provide ...
RENO is a modified MIPS R10000 register renamer that uses map-table “short-circuiting” to implement dynamic versions of several well-known static optimizations: move eliminat...
With faster CPU clocks and wider pipelines, all relevant microarchitecture components should scale accordingly. There have been many proposals for scaling the issue queue, registe...
Ensuring back-to-back execution of dependent instructions in a conventional out-of-order processor requires scheduling logic that wakes up and selects instructions at the same rat...
Two of the most important design issues for modern processors are power and performance. It is important for students in computer organization classes to understand the tradeoff b...
