— Previous works have shown that neural branch prediction techniques achieve far lower misprediction rate than traditional approaches. We propose a neural predictor based on two ...
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...
This paper introduces a new architectural approach that supports compiler-synthesized dynamic branch predication. In compiler-synthesized dynamic branch prediction, the compiler g...

To continue to improve processor performance, microarchitects seek to increase the effective instruction level parallelism (ILP) that can be exploited in applications. A fundament...
Embedded processors like Intel’s XScale use dynamic branch prediction to improve performance. Due to the presence of context switches, the accuracy of these predictors is reduce...
