Abstract. In SMT processors several threads run simultaneously to increase available ILP, sharing but competing for resources. The instruction fetch policy plays a key role, determ...
Abstract: Green computing or energy saving when processing information is primarily considered a task of processor development. We, however, advocate that a holistic approach is ne...
Fetch gating mechanisms have been proposed to gate the processor pipeline to reduce the wasted energy consumption due to wrongpath (i.e. mis-speculated) instructions. These scheme...

Power consumption and DRAM latencies are serious concerns in modern chip-multiprocessor (CMP or multi-core) based compute systems. The management of the DRAM row buffer can signif...

Clustered L0 buffers are an interesting alternative to reduce energy consumption in the instruction memory hierarchy of embedded VLIW processors. Currently, the synthesis of L0 cl...
