Abstract

A semiconductor chip is described having a load collision detection circuit comprising a first bloom filter circuit. The semiconductor chip has a store collision detection circuit comprising a second bloom filter circuit. The semiconductor chip has one or more processing units capable of executing ordered parallel threads coupled to the load collision detection circuit and the store collision detection circuit. The load collision detection circuit and the store collision detection circuit is to detect younger stores for load operations of said threads and younger loads for store operations of said threads.
