多线程体系结构现状及发展

Multithreading Architecture:Current State and Prospect

一、引言多线程体系结构结合了数据流结构和传统的冯氏控制流结构,既保持了指令执行的高性能,又实现了处理器的高效率,是一种通用而高效的延迟隐藏技术。早期的多线程体系结构可以追朔到CI)巳6600和HEP,现今的多线程处理器中的很多技术都可以在它们那里找到踪迹。

This paper divides the multithreading architecture into four kinds: multiple context processor , dataflow /von Nuemann hybrid architecture, multithreading MPA node and multithreading superscalar, then surveys the their state,analyses their features,and prospects their future.
