With the constant advances in technology that lead to the increasing of the transistor count and processor frequency, power dissipation is becoming one of the major issues in high...
Abstract. Branch Prediction is a common function in nowadays microprocessor. Branch predictor is duplicated into multiple copies in each core of a multicore and many-core processor...
Predictors are inherent components of state-of-the-art microprocessors. Branch predictors are discussed actively from diverse perspectives. Performance of a branch predictor large...
Conventional speculative architectures use branch prediction to evaluate the most likely execution path during program execution. However, certain branches are difficult to predic...
