Abstract: Per-address two-level branch predictors have been shown to be among the best predictors and have been implemented in current microprocessors. However, as the cycle time of modern microprocessors continue to decrease, the implementation of set-associative per-address twolevel branch predictors will become more difficult. In this paper, we revisit and analyze an alternative tagless, direct-mapped approach which is simpler, requires lower power, and has faster access time. The tagless predictor... (Update)
