The term “Dark Silicon” has been coined to describe the threat to microprocessor performance caused by increasing transistor power density. Improving energy efficiency is now the primary design goal for all market segments of microprocessors from

Power and utilization constraints are limiting the performance gains of traditional architectures. Designers are increasingly embracing specialization to improve performance in the era of dark-silicon. General purpose processors are beginning to rese

Register Files (RF) in modern out-of-order microprocessors can account for up to 30% of total power consumed by the core. The complexity and size of the RF has increased due to the transition from ROB-based to MIPSR10K-style physical register renamin

Conventional out-of-order processors that use a unified physical register file allocate and reclaim registers explicitly using a free list that operates as a circular queue. We describe and evaluate a more flexible register management scheme — refe
