The Effect of Code Reordering on Branch Prediction
Branch prediction accuracy is a very important factor for superscalarprocessor performance. The ability topredict the outcome of a branch allows the processor to effectively use a...

Address-branch correlation: A novel locality for long-latency hard-to-predict branches
Hard-to-predict branches depending on longlatency cache-misses have been recognized as a major performance obstacle for modern microprocessors. With the widening speed gap between...

Branch Strategies to Optimize Decision Trees for Wide-Issue Architectures
Abstract. Branch predictors are associated with critical design issues for nowadays instruction greedy processors. We study two important domains where the optimization of decision...

Phantom-BTB: a virtualized branch target buffer design
Modern processors use branch target buffers (BTBs) to predict the target address of branches such that they can fetch ahead in the instruction stream increasing concurrency and pe...
