A thread executing on a simultaneous multithreading (SMT) processor that experiences a long-latency load will eventually stall while holding execution resources. Existing long-lat...
Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) attempts to keep a dynamically scheduled processor's resources busy with work from multiple independent threads. Threads with longlatency st...

Current instruction fetch policies in SMT processors are oriented towards optimization of overall throughput and/or fairness. However, they provide no control over how individual ...

Abstract. In SMT processors several threads run simultaneously to increase available ILP, sharing but competing for resources. The instruction fetch policy plays a key role, determ...
