Using Prime Numbers for Cache Indexing to Eliminate Conflict Misses
Using alternative cache indexing/hashing functions is a popular technique to reduce conflict misses by achieving a more uniform cache access distribution across the sets in the ca...

Understanding Scheduling Replay Schemes
Modern microprocessors adopt speculative scheduling techniques where instructions are scheduled several clock cycles before they actually execute. Due to this scheduling delay, sc...

Signature Buffer: Bridging Performance Gap between Registers and Caches
Data communications between producer instructions and consumer instructions through memory incur extra delays that degrade processor performance. In this paper, we introduce a new...

Perceptron-Based Branch Confidence Estimation
Pipeline gating has been proposed for reducing wasted speculative execution due to branch mispredictions. As processors become deeper or wider, pipeline gating becomes more import...

Accurate and Complexity-Effective Spatial Pattern Prediction
Recent research suggests that there are large variations in a cache's spatial usage, both within and across programs. Unfortunately, conventional caches typically employ fixe...
