Comparing Adaptive Routing and Dynamic Voltage Scaling for Link Power Reduction
We compare techniques that dynamically scale the voltage of individual network links to reduce power consumption with an approach in which all links in the network are set to the s...

Globally Adaptive Load-Balanced Routing on Tori
We introduce a new method of adaptive routing on k-ary n-cubes, Globally Adaptive Load-Balance (GAL). GAL makes global routing decisions using global information. In contrast, most...

On Reusing the Results of Pre-Executed Instructions in a Runahead Execution Processor
Previous research on runahead execution took it for granted as a prefetch-only technique. Even though the results of instructions independent of an L2 miss are correctly computed d...
