—The contribution of memory latency to execution time continues to increase, and latency hiding mechanisms become ever more important for efficient processor design. While high-...
The memory subsystem accounts for a significant portion of the aggregate energy budget of contemporary embedded systems. Moreover, there exists a large potential for optimizing th...
In this paper, we outline general design steps of our synthesis tool to realize application specific co-processors such that for a given scientific application having intensive ite...
For maximum performance, an out-of-order processor must issue load instructions as early as possible, while avoiding memory-order violations with prior store instructions that wri...
Performance models provide significant insight into the performance relationships between an application and the system used for execution. The major obstacle to developing perfor...
