Abstract: Programs involving discontinuities introduced by control flow constructs such as conditional branches pose challenges to mathematical optimization methods that assume a degree of smoothness ...

ATHENS — Former Georgia wide receiver Zachariah Branch was arrested early Sunday in Athens and charged with two misdemeanors, one charge of obstructing public sidewalks/streets—prowling and one charge ...

Abstract: Predicated execution has been used to reduce the number of branch mispredictions by eliminating hard-to-predict branches. However, the additional instruction overhead and additional data ...

What if you could unlock the full power of automation without drowning in complexity? Imagine building workflows that feel intuitive yet handle everything from data processing to AI integration, all ...

ABSTRACT: Once, discreet circuit elements, called components, were heaped up on boards inside steel cages using wire-lead technology in just five short years. Fast forward to today, and your computer ...

The new paper, "Pathfinder: High-Resolution Control-Flow Attacks Exploiting the Conditional Branch Predictor," details two novel attacks that could compromise the billions of Intel processors in use.

Researchers have found two novel types of attacks that target the conditional branch predictor found in high-end Intel processors, which could be exploited to compromise billions of processors ...

Those using drmemtraces in core simulators have always wanted to know whether a branch was taken before reading the next instr record. We added the delayed branch feature to avoid them having to read ...

Researchers from UC San Diego and Purdue University have discovered a hidden feature of Intel processors that can be used to significantly increase security, including shutting down an entire class of ...
