The ability to predict the directions of branches, especially conditional branches, is an important problem in modern computer architecture and advanced compilers. Many static and dynamic techniques have been proposed. Today, all state-of-the-art microprocessors have some form of hardware support for dynamic branch prediction. Static techniques, on the other hand, have not been widely studied beca...
