Bounding Worst-Case Instruction Cache Performance
The use of caches poses a difficult tradeoff for architects of real-time systems. While caches provide significant performance advantages, they have also been viewed as inherently...

Dynamic Simultaneous Multithreaded Architecture
This paper presents the Dynamic Simultaneous Multithreaded Architecture (DSMT). DSMT efficiently executes multiple threads from a single program on a SMT processor core. To accomp...

Software Reliability as a Function of User Execution Patterns
Assessing the reliability of a software system has always been an elusive target. A program may work very well for a number of years and this same program may suddenly become quit...

Hardware Support for Control Transfers in Code Caches
Many dynamic optimization and/or binary translation systems hold optimized/translated superblocks in a code cache. Conventional code caching systems suffer from overheads when con...

Understanding the backward slices of performance degrading instructions
For many applications, branch mispredictions and cache misses limit a processor’s performance to a level well below its peak instruction throughput. A small fraction of static i...
