Symmetry and performance in consistency protocols
A consistency protocol can be termed symmetric if all processors are treated identically when they access common resources. By contrast, asymmetric protocols usually assign a home...

Classifying load and store instructions for memory renaming
Memory operations remain a significant bottleneck in dynamically scheduled pipelined processors, due in part to the inability to statically determine the existence of memory addr...

Improving virtual function call target prediction via dependence-based pre-computation
We introduce dependence-based pre-computation as a complement to history-based target prediction schemes. We present pre-computation in the context of virtual function calls (v-ca...

Information Survivability Control Systems
We address the dependence of critical infrastructures— including electric power, telecommunications, finance and transportation—on vulnerable information systems. Our approach...

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...
