We compare the five candidates for the Advanced Encryption Standard based on their performance on the Alpha 21264, a 64-bit superscalar processor. There are several new features o...
This work presents and evaluates a novel processor microarchitecture which combines two paradigms: access/ execute decoupling and simultaneous multithreading. We investigate how b...
