Abstract: The performance of a pipelined computer system depends heavily on the degree of Instruction Level Parallelism (ILP) obtained. Pipeline stalling or flushing due to unpredicted or mispredicted branch instructions has become a significant bottleneck to achieving high ILP. A good branch predictor can reduce the number of such stalls and flushes and is therefore critical to the performance of modern day computers. (Update)
