Kernel Level Speculative DSM
Interprocess communication (IPC) is ubiquitous in today's computing world. One of the simplest mechanisms for IPC is shared memory. We present a system that enhances the Syst...

Copy or Discard execution model for speculative parallelization on multicores
The advent of multicores presents a promising opportunity for speeding up sequential programs via profile-based speculative parallelization of these programs. In this paper we pr...

Scheduling speculative tasks in a compute farm
Users often behave speculatively, submitting work that initially they do not know is needed. Farm computing often consists of single node speculative tasks issued by, e.g., bioinf...

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...

Mapping Out a Path from Hardware Transactional Memory to Speculative Multithreading
— This research demonstrates that coming support for hardware transactional memory can be leveraged to significantly reduce the cost of implementing true speculative multithread...
