Probabilistic Predicate-Aware Modulo Scheduling
Predicated execution enables the removal of branches by converting segments of branching code into sequences of conditional operations. An important side effect of this transforma...

The Program Decision Logic Approach to Predicated Execution
Modern compilers must expose sufficient amounts of Instruction-Level Parallelism (ILP) to achieve the promised performance increases of superscalar and VLIW processors. One of the...

A Comparison of Full and Partial Predicated Execution Support for ILP Processors
One can e ectively utilize predicated execution to improve branch handling in instruction-level parallel processors. Although the potential bene ts of predicated execution are hig...

Phi-Predication for Light-Weight If-Conversion
Predicated execution can eliminate hard to predict branches and help to enable instruction level parallelism. Many current predication variants exist where the result update is co...

Predicate-Aware Scheduling: A Technique for Reducing Resource Constraints
Predicated execution enables the removal of branches wherein segments of branching code are converted into straight-line segments of conditional operations. An important, but gene...
