Improving prediction accuracy of hard-to-predict branches using data value correlation
Performance of modern pipelined processor depends on steady flow of useful instructions for processing. Branch instruction disrupts sequential flow of instructions by presenting multiple paths through which a program can proceed. By predicting branch outcome early, branch predictors allow processor...
