Pipeline Gating: Speculation Control for Energy Reduction
Branch prediction has enabled microprocessors to increase instruction level parallelism (ILP) by allowing programs to speculatively execute beyond control boundaries. Although spe...

VPC prediction: reducing the cost of indirect branches via hardware-based dynamic devirtualization
Indirect branches have become increasingly common in modular programs written in modern object-oriented languages and virtualmachine based runtime systems. Unfortunately, the pred...

A Power-Aware Alternative for the Perceptron Branch Predictor
Abstract. The perceptron predictor is a highly accurate branch predictor. Unfortunately this high accuracy comes with high complexity. The high complexity is the result of the larg...
