Evaluation of a Low-Power Reconfigurable DSP Architecture
Abstract. Programmability is an important capability that provides flexible computing devices, but it incurs significant performance and power penalties. We have proposed an archit...

Selective Eager Execution on the PolyPath Architecture
Control-flow misprediction penalties are a major impediment to high performance in wide-issue superscalar processors. In this paper we present Selective Eager Execution (SEE), an ...

Reducing the Scheduling Critical Cycle Using Wakeup Prediction
For highest performance, a modern microprocessor must be able to determine if an instruction is ready in the same cycle in which it is to be selected for execution. This creates a...

Signature Buffer: Bridging Performance Gap between Registers and Caches
Data communications between producer instructions and consumer instructions through memory incur extra delays that degrade processor performance. In this paper, we introduce a new...
