To achieve highly accurate branch prediction, it is necessary not only to allocate more resources to branch prediction hardware but also to improve the understanding of branch exe...
Value prediction breaks data dependencies in a program thereby creating instruction level parallelism that can increase program performance. Hardware based value prediction techni...
This paper describes the design of a dynamic branchpredictorfor a VLIW processor. The developed branch predictor predicts the direction of a branch, i.e., taken or not taken, and ...
Although there are various ways to exploit software vulnerabilities for malicious attacks, the attacks always result in unexpected behavior in program execution, deviating from wh...
Two-level predictors deliver highly accurate conditional branch prediction, indirect branch target prediction and value prediction. Accurate prediction enables speculative executio...
