Abstract: Today's deeply pipelined, superscalar processors rely on accurate branch prediction in order to approach their performance potential. Branch mispredictions result in a flushing of the speculative information in the pipeline, thus limiting the amount of useful work that can be done. The 2-level branch predictors have been shown to achieve high prediction accuracy. However, it has also been shown that there is a high degree of pattern history table interference in 2-level branch predictors and... (Update)
