Memory System Support for Image Processing
Image processing applications tend to access their data non-sequentially and reuse that data infrequently. As a result, they tend to perform poorly on conventional memory systems ...

In Search of Speculative Thread-Level Parallelism
This paper focuses on the problem of how to find and effectively exploit speculative thread-level parallelism. Our studies show that speculating only on loops does not yield suffi...

A Cost-Effective Clustered Architecture
In current superscalar processors, all floating-point resources are idle during the execution of integer programs. As previous works show, this problem can be alleviated if the fl...
