Session details: Beyond prediction accuracy

Microarchitectural prediction based on neural learning has received increasing attention in recent years. However, neural prediction remains impractical because its superior accuracy over conventional predictors is not enough to offset the cost imposed ...

We describe a novel on-line file access predictor, Recent Popularity, capable of rapid adaptation to workload changes while simultaneously predicting more events with greater accuracy than prior efforts. We distinguish the goal of predicting the most ...

In this paper we discuss how a confidence mechanism is integrated into the branch prediction correctors to improve the accuracy of a primary predictor in the prediction process. A corrector reverses the decision of the primary predictor when it is ...
