Using System-Level Models to Evaluate I/O Subsystem Designs
—We describe a system-level simulation model and show that it enables accurate predictions of both I/O subsystem and overall system performance. In contrast, the conventional app...

The impact of delay on the design of branch predictors
Modern microprocessors employ increasingly complicated branch predictors to achieve instruction fetch bandwidth that is sufficient for wide out-of-order execution cores. While ex...
