Previous research on runahead execution took it for granted as a prefetch-only technique. Even though the results of instructions independent of an L2 miss are correctly computed d...

Runahead execution is a technique that improves processor performance by pre-executing the running application instead of stalling the processor when a long-latency cache miss occ...
