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...
One of the most important problems faced by microarchitecture designers is the poor scalability of some of the current solutions with increased clock frequencies and wider pipelin...
Chip multiprocessors hold great promise for achieving scalability in future systems. Microthreaded chip multiprocessors add a means of exploiting legacy code in such systems. Usin...
In this work we consider battery powered portable systems which either have Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) or voltage and frequency scalable processors as their main proces...
The existing thread scheduler in FreeBSD was well suited towards the computing environment that it was developed in. As the priorities and hardware targets of the project have cha...
