Question

1. A certain sequence of instructions contains 3 conditional branches. The outcome for each branch (T=Taken, N=Not Taken) for a given run of the program is shown below:

 

    Branch 1:  T-T-N-N-N-T

    Branch 2:  N-N-T-T-T-T

    Branch 3:  T-N-T-N-T-N

List the predictions made for all three branches, the accuracy of the predictor for each branch, and the overall accuracy, assuming a 1-bit predictor is used (initialized to Taken)

 

Branch 1:        ___  ___  ___  ___  ___  ___  (___ / 6) = ___ %

Branch 2:        ___  ___  ___  ___  ___  ___  (___ / 6) = ___ %

Branch 3:        ___  ___  ___  ___  ___  ___  (___ / 6) = ___ %

                                                           

                                                            Total: ___ / 18 = ___ %
