Dynamic Branch Prediction for a VLIW Processor
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 ...

Speculative Trace Scheduling in VLIW Processors
VLIW processors are statically scheduled processors and their performance depends on the quality of the compiler’s scheduler. We propose a scheduling scheme where the applicatio...

Analysis of the Execution Time Unpredictability caused by Dynamic Branch Prediction
This paper investigates how dynamic branch prediction in a microprocessor affects the predictability of execution time for software running on that processor. By means of experim...
