A case for two-way skewed-associative caches
TL;DR: Two-way skewed associative caches represent the best tradeoff for today microprocessors with on-chip caches whose sizes are in the range of 4-8K bytes.

Journal ArticleDOI
Design tradeoffs for the alpha EV8 conditional branch predictor
TL;DR: It is shown that the Alpha EV8 branch predictor achieves prediction accuracy in the same range as the state-of-the-art academic global history branch predictors that do not consider implementation constraints in great detail.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Trading conflict and capacity aliasing in conditional branch predictors
TL;DR: The skewed branch predictor is proposed, a multi-bank, tag-less branch predictor designed specifically to reduce the impact of conflict aliasing, and a new classification for branch aliasing based on the three-Cs model for caches is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance implications of single thread migration on a chip multi-core
TL;DR: The experimental results show that the performance loss due to activity migration on a multi-core with private L1s and a shared L2 can be minimized if: (a) a migrating thread continues its execution on a core that was previously visited by the thread, and (b) cores remember their predictor state since their previous activation.
