A comparison of full and partial predicated execution support for ILP processors
1995
SIGARCH Computer Architecture News
One can e ectively utilize predicated execution to improve branch handling in instruction-level parallel processors. Although the potential bene ts of predicated execution are high, the tradeo s involved in the design of an instruction set to support predicated execution can be di cult. On one end of the design spectrum, architectural support for full predicated execution requires increasing the number of source operands for all instructions. Full predicate support provides for the most
