| Abstract | Recently, the microprocessor industry has moved toward chip multiprocessor (CMP) designs as a means of utiliz- ing the increasing transistor counts in the face of physi- cal and micro-architectural limitations. Despite this move, CMPs do not directly improve the performance of single- threaded codes, a characteristic of most applications. In or- der to support parallelization of general-purpose applica- tions, computer architects have proposed CMPs with light- weight scalar communication mechanisms [21, 23, 29]. De- spite such support, most existing compiler multi-threading techniques have generally demonstrated little effective- ness in extracting parallelism from non-scientific applica- tions [14, 15, 22]. The main reason for this is that such techniques are mostly restricted to extracting parallelism within straight-line regions of code. In this paper, we first propose a framework that en- ables global multi-threaded instruction scheduling in gen- eral. We then describe GREMIO, a scheduler built using this framework. GREMIO operates at a global scope, at the procedure level, and uses control dependence analysis to extract non-speculative thread-level parallelism from se- quential codes. Using a fully automatic compiler imple- mentation of GREMIO and a validated processor model, this paper demonstrates gains for a dual-core CMP model running a variety of codes. Our experiments demonstrate the advantage of exploiting global scheduling for multi- threaded architectures, and present gains in a detailed com- parison with the Decoupled Software Pipelining (DSWP) multi-threading technique [18]. Furthermore, our experi- ments show that adding GREMIO to a compiler with DSWP improves the average speedup from 16.5% to 32.8% for im- portant benchmark functions when utilizing two cores, indi- cating the importance of this technique in making compilers extract threads effectively. |

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.
