Abstract--- Multithreaded architectures are a feasible
approach to exploit both regular and irregular paral­
lelism. Today a large collection of multi­threading archi­
tectures with different threaded models, ad implementa­
tion platforms are available. These architectures provide
support for multithreading either at hardware level, with
customized functional units, or at the software level, as
emulators written in some high­level language. The later
approach is usually preferred because of its favorable
