Improving Database Performance on Simultaneous Multithreading Processors
Simultaneous multithreading (SMT) allows multiple threads to supply instructions to the instruction pipeline of a superscalar processor. Because threads share processor resources,...

Partitioning Multi-Threaded Processors with a Large Number of Threads
Today’s general-purpose processors are increasingly using multithreading in order to better leverage the additional on-chip real estate available with each technology generation...

Implicit vs. Explicit Resource Allocation in SMT Processors
In a Simultaneous Multithreaded (SMT) architecture, the front end of a superscalar is adapted in order to be able to fetch from several threads while the back end is shared among ...

Meeting points: using thread criticality to adapt multicore hardware to parallel regions
We present a novel mechanism, called meeting point thread characterization, to dynamically detect critical threads in a parallel region. We define the critical thread the one with...

Hybrid multithreading for VLIW processors
Several multithreading techniques have been proposed to reduce resource underutilization in Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) processors. Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) is a po...
