Optimizing a Superscalar Machine to Run Vector Code
May 1993 (vol. 1 no. 2)
pp. 73-83
A streamlined vector architecture and the IBM superscalar RISC System/6000 are discussed. It is shown, step-by-step, how each handles the same program. The factors that let vector machines outperform the RS/6000 are identified. Several extensions to the RS/6000 architecture that could help it attain vector-level performance on code with long vectors are proposed.
