Impact of Sharing-Based Thread Placement on Multithreaded Architectures
Multithreaded architectures context switch between instruction streams to hide memory access latency. Although this improves processor utilization, it can increase cache interfere...

An Analysis of Operating System Behavior on a Simultaneous Multithreaded Architecture
This paper presents the first analysis of operating system execution on a simultaneous multithreaded (SMT) processor. While SMT has been studied extensively over the past 6 years,...

By-passing the out-of-order execution pipeline to increase energy-efficiency
Out-of-order execution significantly increases the performance of superscalar processors. The out-of-order execution mechanism is, however, energy-inefficient, which inhibits scal...
