摘要: Methods, apparatus, and products for branch prediction in a computer processor are disclosed that include: recording sequence of occurrences branch, an algorithm which the occurs more than once, each result including maintaining pointer to location most recently recorded result; resetting first upon completion algorithm; predicting subsequent results dependence results.
