Here are a few useful papers, both from ASPLOS III (ACM SIGPLAN Notices, May 1989): Norm Jouppi & David Wall, "Availabel Instruction-Level Parallelism for Superscalar and Superpipelined Machines", 272-282. Michael Smith, Mike Johnson, Mark Horowitz, "Limits on Multiple Instruction Issue", 290-302. These: are clearly written, with enough introductory material to to be accessible. are very relevant to topics upon which leading-edge RISC micro folks are working frenziedly. have DATA. -- -john mashey DISCLAIMER: UUCP: {ames,decwrl,prls,pyramid}!mips!mash OR mash@mips.com DDD: 408-991-0253 or 408-720-1700, x253 USPS: MIPS Computer Systems, 930 E.
