Pipeline Gating: Speculation Control for Energy Reduction
Branch prediction has enabled microprocessors to increase instruction level parallelism (ILP) by allowing programs to speculatively execute beyond control boundaries. Although spe...

A SAT-Based Approach to Multiple Sequence Alignment
Multiple sequence alignment is a central problem in Bioinformatics. A known integer programming approach is to apply branch-and-cut to exponentially large graph-theoretic models. T...

An event-guided approach to reducing voltage noise in processors
Abstract—Supply voltage fluctuations that result from inductive noise are increasingly troublesome in modern microprocessors. A voltage “emergency”, i.e., a swing beyond tol...
