Measurements of an off-the-shelf DRAM chip confirm that different cells retain information for different amounts of time. This result extends to DRAM rows, or pages (retention tim...
Allowing loads to issue out-of-order with respect to earlier unresolved store addresses is very important for extracting parallelism in large-window superscalar processors. Blindl...
The use of large instruction windows coupled with aggressive out-oforder and prefetching capabilities has provided significant improvements in processor performance. In this paper...
