The potential for variable-granularity access tracking for optimistic parallelism
Support for optimistic parallelism such as thread-level speculation (TLS) and transactional memory (TM) has been proposed to ease the task of parallelizing software to exploit the...

A low power front-end for embedded processors using a block-aware instruction set
Energy, power, and area efficiency are critical design concerns for embedded processors. Much of the energy of a typical embedded processor is consumed in the front-end since inst...

Debugging Distributed-Shared-Memory Communication at Multiple Granularities in Networks on Chip
We present a methodology to debug a SOC by concentrating on its communication. Our extended communication model includes a) multiple signal groups per interface protocol at each I...

Architectural Support for Fair Reader-Writer Locking
Abstract--Many shared-memory parallel systems use lockbased synchronization mechanisms to provide mutual exclusion or reader-writer access to memory locations. Software locks are i...
