Abstract: In modern computer architectures, it is no longer the hardware that is solely responsible for achieving a high performance. Compiler technology is at least as important. Both have their own different techniques to increase the performance, but they have at least one technique in common: branch prediction. When branches in a program can be predicted correctly, dramatic increases in performance can be achieved. On the hardware level because the processor will not waste cycles fetching and... (Update)
