Reverse State Reconstruction for Sampled Microarchitectural Simulation
For simulation, a tradeoff exists between speed and accuracy. The more instructions simulated from the workload, the more accurate the results — but at a higher cost. To reduce ...

A Comparison of Two Approaches to Parallel Simulation of Multiprocessors
— The design trend towards CMPs has made the simulation of multiprocessor systems a necessity and has also made multiprocessor systems widely available. While a serial multiproce...

DRAM-Level Prefetching for Fully-Buffered DIMM: Design, Performance and Power Saving
We have studied DRAM-level prefetching for the fully buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM) designed for multi-core processors. FB-DIMM has a unique two-level interconnect structure, with FB-DIM...
