Abstract: Pipeline stalls due to conditional branches represent
one of the most significant impediments to realizing the
performance potential of deeply pipelined, superscalar
processors. Many branch predictors have been proposed
to help alleviate this problem, including the Two-Level
Adaptive Branch Predictor, and more recently, twocomponent
hybrid branch predictors.
In a less idealized environment, such as a time-shared
system, code of interest involves context switches. Context
switches, even at... (Update)
