Serializing instructions (SIs), such as writes to control registers, have many complex dependencies, and are difficult to execute out-of-order (OoO). To avoid unnecessary complexi...
Branch misprediction penalty consists of two components: the time wasted on mis-speculative execution until the mispredicted branch is resolved and the time to restart the pipelin...

Modern microprocessors adopt speculative scheduling techniques where instructions are scheduled several clock cycles before they actually execute. Due to this scheduling delay, sc...
The increasing performance gap between processors and memory will force future architectures to devote significant resources towards removing and hiding memory latency. The two ma...
Massive-scale self-administered networks like Peer-to-Peer and Sensor Networks have data distributed across thousands of participant hosts. These networks are highly dynamic with ...
