As multiprocessors become mainstream, techniques to address efficient simulation of multi-threaded workloads are needed. Multi-threaded simulation presents a new challenge: non-d...
Multi-threaded commercial workloads implement many important internet services. Consequently, these workloads are increasingly used to evaluate the performance of uniprocessor and...
A primary goal of high-level modeling is to efficiently explore a broad design space, converging on an optimal or near-optimal system architecture before moving to a more detaile...

—This paper presents a design space exploration of a selective load value prediction scheme suitable for energyaware Simultaneous Multi-Threaded (SMT) architectures. A load value...
Program runtime characteristics exhibit significant variation. As microprocessor architectures become more complex, their efficiency depends on the capability of adapting with wor...
