چکیده

This document gives an overview of the microarchitecture of the Levo prototype computer. Both the data and control paths of Levo are described, with the function of all major subsystems given. Levo's operation is outlined. Anticipated absolute dimensions are given, assuming the 32 Processing Element (PE) single-chip version, called Levo-32-chip.

Levo - A Scalable Billion Transistor CPU

The Levo high ILP microarchitecture is described and evaluated. Levo employs instruction time-tags and active stations to ensure correct operation in a rampantly speculative and out-oforder resource flow execution model. The Tomasulo-algorithm-like broadcast buses are segmented; their lengths are constant, that is, do not increase with machine size. This helps to make Levo scalable. Known High-...

IPC in the 10’s via Resource Flow Computing with Levo

High ILP (Instruction Level Parallelism) exists in typical integer codes. Our goal is to create a machine called Levo that will realize this potential ILP in the face of real hardware limitations. Levo is modeled and evaluated at three different levels of abstraction. FastLevo models the potential of Levo via high-level trace-driven simulation embodying key hardware constraints. LevoSim is a de...

Levo - A Scalable Processor With High IPC

UHT, MORANO, KHALAFI & KAELI 2 description of the microarchitecture, a description of the physical layout (a floorplan), and many new simulation results. The paper is organized as follows. In Section 2 we review major impediments to high IPC realization. Section 3 provides the Levo logical description, and discusses Levo’s solutions to the high IPC problems. Other implementation issues are addr...

Levo-Carnitine Reduces Oxidative Stress and Improves Contractile Functions of Fast Muscles in Type 2 Diabetic Rats

Background: Metabolic derangements in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are likely to affect skeletal muscle contractile functions adversely. Levo-carnitine improves muscle contractile functions in healthy humans and rats and corrects metabolic derangements in T2DM. Therefore, it is likely to improve muscle contractile functions in T2DM as well. This study was designed to determine the effect of ...

Antianalgesia: stereoselective action of dextro-morphine over levo-morphine on glia in the mouse spinal cord.

We have previously shown that the naturally occurring levo-morphine at a subanalgesic picomolar dose pretreated i.t. induces antianalgesia against levo-morphine-produced antinociception. We now report that the synthetic stereo-enantiomer dextro-morphine, even at an extremely low femtomolar dose, induces antianalgesia against levo-morphine-produced antinociception using the tail-flick (TF) test ...
