Chip multi-processors using a micro-threaded model (2006)
Thesis
Hasasneh, N. M. (2006). Chip multi-processors using a micro-threaded model. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4218290

Most microprocessor chips today use an out-of-order (OOO) instruction execution mechanism. This mechanism allows superscalar processors to extract reasonably high levels of instruction level parallelism (lLP). The most significant problem with this a...
