1. Rethinking Dynamic Instruction Scheduling and Retirement for Efficient Microarchitectures
Abstract : Out-of-order execution is one of the main micro-architectural techniques used to improve the performance of both single- and multi-threaded processors. The application of such a processor varies from mobile devices to server computers. READ MORE

2. Leveraging Existing Microarchitectural Structures to Improve First-Level Caching Efficiency
Abstract : Low-latency data access is essential for performance. To achieve this, processors use fast first-level caches combined with out-of-order execution, to decrease and hide memory access latency respectively. READ MORE

3. Rethinking Speculative Execution from a Security Perspective
Abstract : Speculative out-of-order execution is one of the fundamental building blocks of modern, high-performance processors. To maximize the utilization of the system's resources, hardware and software security checks in the speculative domain can be temporarily ignored, without affecting the correctness of the application, as long as no architectural changes are made before transitioning to the non-speculative domain.

5. High-Performance Network-on-Chip Design for Many-Core Processors
Abstract : With the development of on-chip manufacturing technologies and the requirements of high-performance computing, the core count is growing quickly in Chip Multi/Many-core Processors (CMPs) and Multiprocessor System-on-Chip (MPSoC) to support larger scale parallel execution. Network-on-Chip (NoC) has become the de facto solution for CMPs and MPSoCs in addressing the communication challenge. READ MORE
