Branch prediction accuracy is a very important factor for superscalarprocessor performance. The ability topredict the outcome of a branch allows the processor to effectively use a...
Communication in cache-coherent distributed shared memory (DSM) often requires invalidating (or writing back) cached copies of a memory block, incurring high overheads. This paper...
In response to current technology scaling trends, architects are developing a new style of processor, known as spatial computers. A spatial computer is composed of hundreds or eve...
