Data compression and prediction are closely related. Thus prediction methods based on data compression algorithms have been suggested for the branch prediction problem. In this wo...
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 ...
Designers have invested much effort in developing accurate branch predictors with short learning periods. Such techniques rely on exploiting complex and relatively large structure...
Over the last decade, a number of methods for geometric matching based on a branch-and-bound approach have been proposed. Such algorithms work by recursively subdividing transforma...
Value prediction breaks data dependencies in a program thereby creating instruction level parallelism that can increase program performance. Hardware based value prediction techni...
