Perceptron-Based Branch Confidence Estimation
Pipeline gating has been proposed for reducing wasted speculative execution due to branch mispredictions. As processors become deeper or wider, pipeline gating becomes more import...

Confidence Estimation for Speculation Control
Modern processors improve instruction level parallelism by speculation. The outcome of data and control decisions is predicted, and the operations are speculatively executed and o...

Compiler controlled value prediction using branch predictor based confidence
Value prediction breaks data dependencies in a program thereby creating instruction level parallelism that can increase program performance. Hardware based value prediction techni...

Confidence-Based Work Stealing in Parallel Constraint Programming
The most popular architecture for parallel search is work stealing: threads that have run out of work (nodes to be searched) steal from threads that still have work. Work stealing ...
