Abstract
This paper investigates simultaneous multithreading (SMT). This technique allows a processor to choose instructions from several streams at once. This paper introduces SMT in detail and shows how it can be further optimized. It the compares it to multiprocessor systems, another popular technique available. We find SMT the clear winner for small-scale systems. This paper concludes by looking at some recent work and future work regarding SMT.
