Using Branch Prediction Information for Near-Optimal I-Cache Leakage
This paper describes a new on-demand wakeup prediction policy for instruction cache leakage control that achieves better leakage savings than prior policies, and avoids the perform...

Maximizing CMP Throughput with Mediocre Cores
In this paper we compare the performance of area equivalent small, medium, and large-scale multithreaded chip multiprocessors (CMTs) using throughput-oriented applications. We use...

Using Lamport Clocks to Reason about Relaxed Memory Models
Cache coherence protocols of current shared-memory multiprocessors are difficult to verify. Our previous work proposed an extension of Lamport's logical clocks for showing th...
