A light-weight fairness mechanism for chip multiprocessor memory systems
Chip Multiprocessor (CMP) memory systems suffer from the effects of destructive thread interference. This interference reduces performance predictability because it depends heavil...

Ubiquitous Memory Introspection
Modern memory systems play a critical role in the performance of applications, but a detailed understanding of the application behavior in the memory system is not trivial to atta...

Ginger: control independence using tag rewriting
The negative performance impact of branch mis-predictions can be reduced by exploiting control independence (CI). When a branch mis-predicts, the wrong-path instructions up to the...

Leveraging Predicated Execution for Multimedia Processing
—Modern compression standards such as H.264, DivX, or VC-1 provide astonishing quality at the costs of steadily increasing processing requirements. Therefore, efficient solution...

ReSlice: Selective Re-Execution of Long-Retired Misspeculated Instructions Using Forward Slicing
As more data value speculation mechanisms are being proposed to speed-up processors, there is growing pressure on the critical processor structures that must buffer the state of t...
