Static Branch Prediction

Static Branch Prediction. Branch prediction schemes can be classified into static and dynamic schemes. Static methods are usually carried out by the compiler. They are static because the prediction is already known before the program is executed. Some of the static prediction schemes include:

Dynamic Branch Prediction

Dynamic Branch Prediction. Dynamic branch prediction schemes run-time behavior of branches to make predictions. Usually information about outcomes of previous occurrences of branches are used to predict the outcome of the current branch.
