A Mechanism for Speculative Memory Accesses Following Synchronizing Operations
In order to reduce the overhead of synchronizing operations of shared memory multiprocessors, this paper proposes a mechanism, named specMEM, to execute memory accesses following ...

Improving Speculative Thread-Level Parallelism Through Module Run-Length Prediction
Exploiting speculative thread-level parallelism across modules, e.g., methods, procedures, or functions, have shown promise. However, misspeculations and task creation overhead ar...

Improving the performance of speculatively parallel applications on the Hydra CMP
Hydra is a chip multiprocessor (CMP) with integrated support for thread-level speculation. Thread-level speculation provides a way to parallelize sequential programs without the n...

Data Speculation Support for a Chip Multiprocessor
Thread-level speculation is a technique that enables parallel execution of sequential applications on a multiprocessor. This paper describes the complete implementation of the sup...
