We introduce Branch Predictor Prediction (BPP) as a power-aware branch prediction technique for high performance processors. Our predictor reduces branch prediction power dissipat...
Although high branch prediction accuracy is necessary for high performance, it typically comes at the cost of larger predictor tables and/or more complex prediction algorithms. Un...

Ever increasing performance requirements have elevated deeply pipelined architectures to a standard even in the embedded processor domain, requiring the incorporation of dynamic b...
In high-performance computer systems, performance losses due to conditional branch instructions can be minimized by predicting a branch outcome and fetching, decoding, and/or issu...
