Code Semantic-Aware Runahead Threads
Memory-intensive threads can hoard shared resources without making progress on a multithreading processor (SMT), thereby hindering the overall system performance. A recent promisi...

Predicting Performance on SMPs. A Case Study: The SGI Power Challenge
We study the issue of performance prediction on the SGIPower Challenge, a typical SMP. On such a platform, the cost of memory accesses depends on their locality and on contention ...

Can Trace-Driven Simulators Accurately Predict Superscalar Performance?
There are four crucial issues associated with performance simulators: simulator retargetability, simulator validation, simulation speed and simulation accuracy. This paper documen...

Slice-processors: an implementation of operation-based prediction
We describe the Slice Processor micro-architecture that implements a generalized operation-based prefetching mechanism. Operation-based prefetchers predict the series of operation...

Speculative Trace Scheduling in VLIW Processors
VLIW processors are statically scheduled processors and their performance depends on the quality of the compiler’s scheduler. We propose a scheduling scheme where the applicatio...
