Abstract: Thread-Level Speculation (TLS) allows us to automatically parallelize general-purpose programs by supporting parallel execution of threads that might not actually be independent. In this paper, we show that the key to good performance lies in the three different ways to communicate a value between speculative threads: speculation, synchronization, and prediction. The difficult part is deciding how and when to apply each method. This paper shows how we can apply value prediction, dynamic... (Update)

...that breaks inter task true dependences by predicting the communicated values. This approach, in itself, is not novel [1, 15, 16, 21]; what is novel is the manner in which the predictions are made. Rather than use a history based hardware widget, our approach uses...
