Software pipelining is a critical optimization for producing efficient code for VLIW/EPIC and superscalar processors in highperformance embedded applications such as digital sign...
This paper explores a new technique called coherence decoupling, which breaks a traditional cache coherence protocol into two protocols: a Speculative Cache Lookup (SCL) protocol ...
Microprocessor design is undergoing a major paradigm shift towards multi-core designs, in anticipation that future performance gains will come from exploiting threadlevel parallel...
