Microarchitectural Miss/Execute Decoupling

The decoupled access/execute architecture described a machine that enables the access of memory values to be decoupled from the consumption of those values. Although never widely adopted in its original form, the decoupled design is a compelling way to tolerate memory latency. In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a novel implementation of decoupling, one based on the following two refineme...
