Abstract

One of the old techniques for performance improvements is branch prediction. As the branch misprediction rate has reached less than 0.01 for certain techniques, it is safe to say that current branch prediction techniques are very efficient. But for certain critical applications a small misprediction also poses a problem. In this paper, a new prediction technique is discussed which always predicts the branch correctly. This technique works well for else if loop at the cost of increased hardware resources.
