Modern architectures, such as the Intel Itanium, support speculation, a hardware mechanism that allows the early execution of expensive operations—possibly even before it is kno...

With the current trend toward multicore architectures, improved execution performance can no longer be obtained via traditional single-thread instruction level parallelism (ILP), ...
— In this paper we present the Molen programming paradigm, which is a sequential consistency paradigm for programming Custom Computing Machines (CCM). The programming paradigm al...
