On the value locality of store instructions
Value locality, a recently discovered program attribute that describes the likelihood of the recurrence of previously-seen program values, has been studied enthusiastically in the...

A Framework for Parallelizing Load/Stores on Embedded Processors
Many modern embedded processors (esp. DSPs) support partitioned memory banks (also called X-Y memory or dual bank memory) along with parallel load/store instructions to achieve co...

Silent stores for free
Silent store instructions write values that exactly match the values that are already stored at the memory address that is being written. A recent study reveals that significant ...

Storageless Value Prediction Using Prior Register Values
This paper presents a technique called register value prediction (RVP) which uses a type of locality called register-value reuse. By predicting that an instruction will produce th...

Using a Swap Instruction to Coalesce Loads and Stores
A swap instruction, which exchanges a value in memory with a value of a register, is available on many architectures. The primary application of a swap instruction has been for pro...
