Conditional branch induced control hazards cause significant performance loss in modern out-of-order superscalar processors. Dynamic branch prediction techniques help alleviate th...
The current trend in HPC hardware is towards clusters of shared-memory (SMP) compute nodes. For applications developers the major question is how best to program these SMP cluster...
With the shift towards chip multiprocessors (CMPs), exploiting and managing parallelism has become a central problem in computer systems. Many issues of parallelism management boi...
On Chip Multiprocessors (CMP), it is common that multiple cores share certain levels of cache. The sharing increases the contention in cache and memory-to-chip bandwidth, further h...
