Conventional high-performance processors utilize register renaming and complex broadcast-based scheduling logic to steer instructions into a small number of heavily-pipelined exec...
As multiprocessor systems-on-chip become a reality, performance modeling becomes a challenge. To quickly evaluate many architectures, some type of high-level simulation is require...
