Current data cache organizations fail to deliver high performance in scalar processors for many vector applications. There are two main reasons for this loss of performance: the u...
Branch mispredictions can have a major performance impact on high-performance processors. Multipath execution has recently been introduced to help limit the misprediction penaltie...
Processor cycle time continues to decrease faster than main memory access times, placing higher demands on cache memory hierarchy performance. To meet these demands, conventional ...
