Several studies of speculative execution based on values have reported promising performance potential. However, virtually all microarchitectures in these studies were described i...
Thread-Level Speculation (TLS) allows us to automatically parallelize general-purpose programs by supporting parallel execution of threads that might not actually be independent. ...

We propose a low overhead, on-line memory monitoring scheme utilizing a set of novel hardware counters. The counters act like pressure gauges indicating the marginal gain in the n...
This work is based on our philosophy of providing interlayer system-level power awareness in computing systems [26, 27]. Here, we couple this approach with our vision of multipart...
