Current processors exploit out-of-order execution and branch prediction to improve instruction level parallelism. When a branch prediction is wrong, processors flush the pipeline ...
In this paper, we describe an algorithm and implementation of locality optimizations for architectures with instruction sets such as Intel’s SSE and Motorola’s AltiVec that su...
Two limitations of the current implementations of adaptive QoS behaviors are complexity associated with inserting them into common application contexts and lack of reusability acr...
