IP address lookup is challenging for high performance routers because it requires a longest matching prefix at speeds of up to 10 Gbps (OC-192). Existing solutions have poor updat...
The core of current-generation high-performance multiprocessor systems is out-of-order execution processors with aggressive branch prediction. Despite their relatively high branch...

In distributed shared memory multiprocessors, remote memory references generate processor-to-memory traffic, which may result in a bottleneck. It is therefore important to design ...
Multiprocessor memory reference traces provide a wealth of information on the behavior of parallel programs. We have used this information to explore the relationship between kern...

Abstract. Alias analysis, traditionally performed statically, is unsuited for a dynamic binary translator (DBT) due to incomplete control-flow information and the high complexity o...

As microprocessor speeds increase, memory bandwidth is increasing y the performance bottleneck for microprocessors. This has occurred because innovation and technological improvem...
High-performance out-of-order processors spend a significant portion of their execution time on the incorrect program path even though they employ aggressive branch prediction al...

When vectorizing for SIMD architectures that are commonly employed by today’s multimedia extensions, one of the new challenges that arise is the handling of memory alignment. Pr...
High-performance multiprocessor systems built around out-of-order processors with aggressive branch predictors execute many memory references that turn out to be on a mispredicted...
