Accurate instruction fetch and branch prediction is increasingly important on today’s wide-issue architectures. Fetch prediction is the process of determining the next instructi...
As processor architectures have increased their reliance on speculative execution to improve performance, the importance of accurate prediction of what to execute speculatively ha...
—We consider the problem of inferring link loss rates using passive measurements. Prior inference approaches are mainly built on the time correlation nature of packet losses. How...
We prove that, for any fixed k, one can construct a linear time algorithm that checks if a graph has branchwidth≤ k and, if so, outputs a branch decomposition of minimum width....
The replication number of a branching program is the minimum number R such that along every accepting computation at most R variables are tested more than once; the sets of variab...
