High-performance out-of-order processors spend a significant portion of their execution time on the incorrect program path even though they employ aggressive branch prediction al...

Fetch gating mechanisms have been proposed to gate the processor pipeline to reduce the wasted energy consumption due to wrongpath (i.e. mis-speculated) instructions. These scheme...

Modern processors attempt to overcome increasing memory latencies by anticipating future references and prefetching those blocks from memory. The behavior and possible negative si...

High-performance multiprocessor systems built around out-of-order processors with aggressive branch predictors execute many memory references that turn out to be on a mispredicted...
