Low-power, low-complexity instruction issue using compiler assistance
In an out-of-order issue processor, instructions are dynamically reordered and issued to function units in their dataready order rather than their original program order to achiev...

Adapting compilation techniques to enhance the packing of instructions into registers
The architectural design of embedded systems is becoming increasingly idiosyncratic to meet varying constraints regarding energy consumption, code size, and execution time. Tradit...

MLP-Aware Runahead Threads in a Simultaneous Multithreading Processor
Abstract. Threads experiencing long-latency loads on a simultaneous multithreading (SMT) processor may clog shared processor resources without making forward progress, thereby star...

An efficient wakeup design for energy reduction in high-performance superscalar processors
In modern superscalar processors, the complex instruction scheduler could form the critical path of the pipeline stages and limit the clock cycle time. In addition, complex schedu...

Runahead Threads to improve SMT performance
In this paper, we propose Runahead Threads (RaT) as a valuable solution for both reducing resource contention and exploiting memory-level parallelism in Simultaneous Multithreaded...
