Branch prediction mechanisms are becoming commonplace within current generation processors. Dynamic branch predictors, albeit able to predict branches quite accurately in average,...
Efficient performance tuning of parallel programs is often hard. We present a performance prediction and visualization tool called VPPB. Based on a monitored uni-processor executi...
We have developed a set of performance prediction tools which help to estimate the achievable speedups from parallelizing a sequential simulation. The tools focus on two important...
As process technology advances toward deep submicron (below 90nm), static power becomes a new challenge to address for energy-efficient high performance processors, especially for...
