Exploiting data-width locality to increase superscalar execution bandwidth
In a 64-bit processor, many of the data values actually used in computations require much narrower data-widths. In this study, we demonstrate that instruction data-widths exhibit ...

Improving Superscalar Instruction Dispatch and Issue by Exploiting Dynamic Code Sequences
Superscalar processors currently have the potential to fetch multiple basic blocks per cycle by employing one of several recently proposed instruction fetch mechanisms. However, t...

Optimization of Instruction Fetch for Decision Support Workloads
Instruction fetch bandwidth is feared to be a major limiting factor to the performance of future wide-issue aggressive superscalars. In this paper, we focus on Database applicatio...

On High-Bandwidth Data Cache Design for Multi-Issue Processors
Highly aggressive multi-issue processor designs of the past few years and projections for the next decade require that we redesign the operation of the cache memory system. The nu...
