Fetch Directed Instruction Prefetching
Instruction supply is a crucial component of processor performance. Instruction prefetching has been proposed as a mechanism to help reduce instruction cache misses, which in turn...

FPGA Routing Architecture: Segmentation and Buffering to Optimize Speed and Density
In this work we investigate the routing architecture of FPGAs, focusing primarily on determining the best distribution of routing segment lengths and the best mix of pass transist...

Supporting Highly-Speculative Execution via Adaptive Branch Trees
Most of the prediction mechanisms predict a single path to continue the execution on a branch. Alternatively, we may exploit parallelism from either possible paths of a branch, di...

Detection of Logical Coupling Based on Product Release History
Code-based metrics such as coupling and cohesion are used to measure a system's structural complexity. But dealing with large systems--those consisting of several millions of...

Predicting the Running Times of Parallel Programs by Simulation
Predicting the running time of a parallel program is useful for determining the optimal values for the parameters of the implementation and the optimal mapping of data on processo...
