The store-load address table and speculative register promotion
Register promotion is an optimization that allocates a value to a register for a region of its lifetime where it is provably not aliased. Conventional compiler analysis cannot alw...

Program Balance and Its Impact on High Performance RISC Architectures
Information on the behavior of programs is essential for deciding the number and nature of functional units in high performance architectures. In this paper, we present studies on...

Signature Buffer: Bridging Performance Gap between Registers and Caches
Data communications between producer instructions and consumer instructions through memory incur extra delays that degrade processor performance. In this paper, we introduce a new...

Speculative Versioning Cache
Dependences among loads and stores whose addresses are unknown hinder the extraction of instruction level parallelism during the execution of a sequential program. Such ambiguous ...

Decomposing the load-store queue by function for power reduction and scalability
Because they are based on large content-addressable memories, load-store queues (LSQ) present implementation challenges in superscalar processors, especially as issue width and nu...
