Recent proposals for Chip Multiprocessors (CMPs) advocate speculative, or implicit, threading in which the hardware employs prediction to peel off instruction sequences (i.e., imp...

Shadow value tools use metadata to track properties of application data at the granularity of individual machine instructions. These tools provide effective means of monitoring an...
o much higher levels of abstraction than today's design practices, which are usually at the level of synthesizable RTL for custom hardware or Instruction Set Simulator (ISS) f...

We describe a radically new cache architecture and demonstrate that it offers a huge reduction in cache cost, size and power consumption whilst maintaining performance on a wide ra...
On-chip multiprocessor can be an alternative to the wide-issue superscalar processor approach which is currently the mainstream to exploit the increasing number of transistors on ...
