PROFILE

Denghaiwen

Worked on the OpenXiangShan-Nanhu/Nanhu-V5 repository to enhance CPU performance and reliability by tuning the instruction fetch and predictor stack. Focused on microarchitectural improvements, this developer enlarged the Instruction Fetch Buffer and optimized the TAGE predictor by reducing the number of banks, using Verilog, Chisel, and Scala. Addressed a bug in TAGE table initialization by refining reset logic and handling valid bits correctly, which improved predictor startup behavior. The work resulted in higher instruction throughput, reduced mispredictions, and lower energy per instruction, while maintaining clear Git traceability and disciplined regression practices to support ongoing maintainability and workload performance.
