A backtracking instruction scheduler using predicate-based code hoisting to fill delay slots
Delayed branching is a technique to alleviate branch hazards without expensive hardware branch prediction mechanisms. For VLIW processors with deep pipelines and many issue slots,...

Better Global Scheduling Using Path Profiles
Path profiles record the frequencies of execution paths through a program. Until now, the best global instruction schedulers have relied upon profile-gathered frequencies of condi...

Memory Dependence Prediction Using Store Sets
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...

Dynamic instruction schedulers in a 3-dimensional integration technology
We present the design of high-performance and energy-efficient dynamic instruction schedulers in a 3-Dimensional integration technology. Based on a previous observation that the c...
