Target Prediction for Indirect Jumps
As the issue rate and pipeline depth of high performance superscalar processors increase, the amount of speculative work issued also increases. Because speculative work must be th...

VPC prediction: reducing the cost of indirect branches via hardware-based dynamic devirtualization
Indirect branches have become increasingly common in modular programs written in modern object-oriented languages and virtualmachine based runtime systems. Unfortunately, the pred...
