Cache contention and application performance prediction for multi-core systems
—The ongoing move to chip multiprocessors (CMPs) permits greater sharing of last-level cache by processor cores but this sharing aggravates the cache contention problem, potentia...

Optimization of Instruction Fetch Mechanisms for High Issue Rates
Recent superscalar processors issue four instructions per cycle. These processors are also powered by highly-parallel superscalar cores. The potential performance can only be expl...

Scaling the issue window with look-ahead latency prediction
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 ...

Code placement for improving dynamic branch prediction accuracy
Code placement techniques have traditionally improved instruction fetch bandwidth by increasing instruction locality and decreasing the number of taken branches. However, traditio...
