For highest performance, a modern microprocessor must be able to determine if an instruction is ready in the same cycle in which it is to be selected for execution. This creates a...
Dynamic instruction scheduling logic is one of the most critical and cycle-limiting structures in modern superscalar processors, and it is not easily pipelined without significant ...
The aim of this work is to provide an elegant and accurate static execution timing model for 32-bit microprocessor instruction sets, covering also inter–instruction effects. Suc...
