| Abstract | The continuously increasing gap between processor and memory speeds is a serious limitation to the performance achievable by future microprocessors. Currently, processors tolerate long-latency memory operations largely by maintaining a high number of in-flight instructions. In the future, this may require supporting many hundreds, or even thousands, of in-flight instructions. Unfortunately, the traditional approach of scaling up critical processor structures to provide such support is impractical at these levels, due to area, power, and cycle time constraints.In this paper we show that, in order to overcome this resource-scalability problem, the way in which critical processor resources are managed must be changed. Instead of simply upsizing the processor structures, we propose a smarter use of the available resources, supported by a selective checkpointing mechanism. This mechanism allows instructions to commit out of order, and makes a reorder buffer unnecessary. We present a set of techniques such as multilevel instruction queues, late allocation and early release of registers, and early release of load/store queue entries. All together, these techniques constitute what we call a kilo-instruction processor, an architecture that can support thousands of in-flight instructions, and thus may achieve high performance even in the presence of large memory access latencies. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
