Performance evaluation of modern, highly speculative, out-of-order microprocessors and the corresponding production of detailed, valid, accurate results have become serious challe...
There are four crucial issues associated with performance simulators: simulator retargetability, simulator validation, simulation speed and simulation accuracy. This paper documen...

Previous studies in speculative prefetching focus on building and evaluating access models for the purpose of access prediction. This paper investigates a complementary area which...
This paper presents a novel architectural technique to hide fetch latency overhead of hardware encrypted and authenticated memory. A number of recent secure processor designs have...
Modern processors improve instruction level parallelism by speculation. The outcome of data and control decisions is predicted, and the operations are speculatively executed and o...
