Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Examines the thread support in a multi-threaded processor architecture, called the Super-Actor Machine (SAM). The SAM employs a novel organization of high-speed buffer memory known as the register-cache-a memory device organized both as a register file and a cache, and is used as a buffer between the execution unit and main memory. To characterize the floating-point performance of the machine on scientific benchmarks, a new performance measure is introduced, called the Floating-point Arithmetic and logic operations per machine Beat, or FAB for short. Results from a detailed simulation are very encouraging: for the memory-intensive SAXPY scientific loop, a processing element of the SAM can attain a .85 FAB rating as compared to a value of nearly 1 for the IBM RS/6000 which employs the combined floating-point add-multiply operation (this type of instruction has not been implemented on the SAM yet). Furthermore, the SAM can attain this rating with less execution resources (i.e. high-speed registers) than typical multi-threaded architectures.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
