MLP-Aware Runahead Threads in a Simultaneous Multithreading Processor
Abstract. Threads experiencing long-latency loads on a simultaneous multithreading (SMT) processor may clog shared processor resources without making forward progress, thereby star...

Runahead Threads to improve SMT performance
In this paper, we propose Runahead Threads (RaT) as a valuable solution for both reducing resource contention and exploiting memory-level parallelism in Simultaneous Multithreaded...

Code Semantic-Aware Runahead Threads
Memory-intensive threads can hoard shared resources without making progress on a multithreading processor (SMT), thereby hindering the overall system performance. A recent promisi...

Thread Merging Schemes for Multithreaded Clustered VLIW Processors
Several multithreading techniques have been proposed to reduce the resource underutilization in Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) processors. Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) is ...

Combining thread level speculation helper threads and runahead execution
With the current trend toward multicore architectures, improved execution performance can no longer be obtained via traditional single-thread instruction level parallelism (ILP), ...
