Abstract
Multithreading as an idea for processor architecture has evolved significantly since the days of the CDC 6600. The motivations for its use have varied widely over the years, and many novel ideas have been tried. This talk will focus on the genealogy of the "conventional" branch of the multithreaded processor family tree, one which generally sprang from the need to improve von Neumann processor architecture rather than from the evolution of dataflow ideas.
