RingScalar: A Complexity-Effective Out-of-Order Superscalar Microarchitecture

RingScalar is a complexity-effective microarchitecture for out-of-order superscalar processors, that reduces the area, latency, and power of all major structures in the instruction flow. The design divides an N-way superscalar into N columns connected in a unidirectional ring, where each column con...
