Quantifying instruction criticality for shared memory multiprocessors
Recent research on processor microarchitecture suggests using instruction criticality as a metric to guide hardware control policies. Fields et al. [3, 4] have proposed a directed...

Reducing Ownership Overhead for Load-Store Sequences in Cache-Coherent Multiprocessors
Parallel programs that modify shared data in a cachecoherent multiprocessor with a write-invalidate coherence protocol create ownership overhead in the form of ownership acquisiti...

Data Speculation Support for a Chip Multiprocessor
Thread-level speculation is a technique that enables parallel execution of sequential applications on a multiprocessor. This paper describes the complete implementation of the sup...
