Speculative Multithreading Architectures
Multiprocessor system evaluation has traditionally been based on direct-execution based Execution-Driven Simulations (EDS) where the processor component of the system is not fully modeled. However, using direct-execution to model a superscalar processor has been considered an open problem. In the …

Speculative Shared -Memory Architectures
… of sequential and parallel codes. We propose a speculative shared-memory system to extract parallelism from codes for which today's parallelizing compilers fail. We distance ourselves from the existing literature by targeting scalability and modularity: Our hierarchical approach largely …

Governance Choices During Speculative Exuberance
… efficiency assumption during periods of speculative exuberance. Unfortunately, little research examines this issue, and the impact of speculative exuberance on governance choices of firms is very much an open question. This dissertation is an attempt to address gaps in the literature by …

Efficient Support for Speculative Tasking
Finally, recent proposals for Speculative Tasking have called for signatures in hardware to accelerate memory disambiguation. To take full advantage of signatures, this thesis presents SoftBulk, a novel architecture that exposes signatures to software directly through the instruction set. Using …

Speculative Vectorization with Selective Replay
… This hardware-software co-design allows speculative vectorization of more code regions and hence enhances the coverage of vectorization. Finally, to optimize the new SIMD architecture, a new instruction is proposed to augment memory-access instructions with extra tags that carry …

In-core, hint-based, speculative multithreading
… Thread-level speculation (TLS or SpMT, speculative multi-threading) has been identified as a possible solution in past academic work, but there has been a large disconnect between academia and industry in identifying design constraints and addressing practical adoption hurdles, which has …

Speculative indigeneities: the [k]new now
… is further processed through the mechanisms of speculative research as a way to think beyond the dilemmas and paradoxes that emerge from the historical, anthropological and performance analyses of this event. The penultimate chapter of this dissertation suggests a conceptual rehearsal of the …

Speculative parallelism in Intel Cilk Plus
… be ended. This type of computation is known as speculative parallelism. Typically, an abort command is provided in the programming language to provide this functionality, but some languages do not. This thesis shows how support for the abort command can be provided as a user-level library. A …

Optimizing throughput architectures for speculative parallelism
… applications. Recent work has shown that speculative parallelism is plentiful for a large class of applications that have traditionally been hard to parallelize. However, adding hardware support for speculative parallelism to a throughput-oriented system leads to a severe pathology: …

Emergence: Speculative Ecologies & Evolution in Art
… an understanding of the exhibition as a “speculative ecology” and the different roles that instructions, rule-based systems and contracts could take on in staging evolutionary processes. The ecological framing of the exhibition emphasizes a renegotiation of agency amongst the exhibition’s …

Unwanted Project: Speculative Design for Circularity
More than 360 million tons of plastic are produced each year (2020, global plastic report), and only 9% can be recycled properly. With increasing climate change and the inevitable single-use waste stream produced in our everyday life, plastic pollution is rapidly outpacing the current effort to …

Advanced application software for speculative housing companies.
… system (Spec-Builder) suitable for an actual speculative house building company. Spec-Builder was developed over a relatively short time period, thus supporting the research hypothesis. As much of the software was generated from proven DB4GL procedures, the resulting system was reliable. The …

Machine-independent parallel execution of speculative computations
… Parallel execution of such computations leads to speculative computations. We investigate schemes for parallel execution of such speculative computations to obtain consistent and good linear speedups to a first solution that increase monotonically with the addition of processors. The memory usage …

Speculative urbanism constructing entrepreneurial subjects in India
My dissertation examines how current governances in cities of India are involved in engineering a new politics, i.e. the sculpting of civic subjects. This agenda, to sculpt civic subjects by entrepreneurializing spaces, is relatively new. I chronicle that beneath this political maneuver to …
