A Design of a High Performance Stream Processor without Superscalar Architecture

Advanced Techniques for Improving Processor Performance in a Superscalar Architecture

The main aim of this short paper is to investigate multiple-instruction-issue in a high-performance superscalar architecture, illustrating the optimum values for some processing parameters, as well as some advanced techniques for improving processor performance, such as dependence collapsing and instruction bypassing. Our analysis is based on a trace driven simulation method. The simulation res...

Concept of a Supervector Processor: A Vector Approach to Superscalar Processor, Design and Performance Analysis

To maximize the available performance is always a goal in microprocessor design. In this paper a new technique has been implemented which exploits the advantage of both superscalar and vector processing technique in a proposed processor called Supervector processor. Vector processor operates on array of data called vector and can greatly improve certain task such as numerical simulation and tas...

Performance Measures of Superscalar Processor

In this paper the author describes about superscalar processor and its architecture. A superscalar architecture is one in which several instructions can be initiated simultaneously and executed independently. pipelining allows several instructions to be executed at the same time, but they have to be in different pipeline stages at a given moment. Superscalar architectures include all features o...

Design of a High Performance VLSI Processor

Current VLSI fabrication technology makes it possible to design a 32-bit CPU on a single chip. However, to achieve high performance from that processor, the architecture and implementation must be carefully designed and tuned. The MIPS processor incorporates some new architectural ideas into a single-chip, nMOS implementation. Processor performance is obtained by the careful integration of the ...
