Comparing Static and Dynamic Code Scheduling for Multiple-Instruction-Issue Processors
This paper examines two alternative approaches to supporting code scheduling for multiple-instruction-issue processors. One is to provide a set of non-trapping instructions so tha...

Speculative synchronization and thread management for fine granularity threads
Performance of multithreaded programs is heavily influenced by the latencies of the thread management and synchronization operations. Improving these latencies becomes especially...

The effects of predicated execution on branch prediction
High performance architectures have always had to deal with the performance-limiting impact of branch operations. Microprocessor designs are going to have to deal with this proble...

Speculative instruction validation for performance-reliability trade-off
With reducing feature size, increasing chip capacity, and increasing clock speed, microprocessors are becoming increasingly susceptible to transient (soft) errors. Redundant multi...
