Because of the high cost of communication between processors, compilers that parallelize
loops automatically have been forced to skip a large class of loops that are both critical to
performance and rich in latent parallelism. HELIX-RC is a compiler/microprocessor co-
design that opens those loops to parallelization by decoupling communication from thread
execution in conventional multicore architecures. Simulations of HELIX-RC, applied to a
processor with 16 Intel Atom-like cores, show an average of 6.85× performance speedup for …

Simulations of HELIX-RC, applied to a processor with 16 Intel Atom-like cores, show an average of 6.85× performance speedup for six SPEC CINT2000 benchmarks.
